Poll: Georgia and Florida GOP Presidential Primary 12.17.15
To no one’s surprise, Trump has maintained his leads in both Florida and Georgia following the CNN debate. Likely voters were polled on the evening of December 16th and asked their choice for the presidential nomination, as well as who they believe won/lost the debate on foreign policy. We also asked voters to select their candidate of choice out of the top five candidates in national polls, which yielded interesting results in both states. Finally, we asked voters to consider Trump’s recent proposal to ban temporarily all non-US resident Muslims from entering the United States; this proposal saw majority approval in both states.
