Guys, remember what just happened with Nevada with the exit polls?  Lets take a deep breath before leaping to conclusions.

Entrance polls != exit polls.

The later are far more accurate

Exit polls for primaries tend to be more accurate than entrance polls for caucuses.

If Trump can repeat his >40% showing among early deciders from NH, he'll be fine. Big if, though.

I'm praying for another upset here, but if there's one thing we've learned today it's that these are't very indicative of the final result.

Looks like Rubio's unlikely to win. Thank God.

A 3rd place finish will make him the story. And if he gets 2nd? Forget it, he's the inevitable nominee.
Even if he ends up leading Trump and Cruz in polling.  He still has to avoid a brokered convention.  Both candidates have die hard supporters who'll never abandon them.

I'm not gonna make any projections based on this, but the numbers look good if your name is Ted Cruz - heavily religious, 40% Very Conservative, 45% someone who shares your religious beliefs. Rubio could do decently with the 42% of Somewhat Conservative voters, and Rubio also tends to over-perform with religious voters.

Looks like Rubio's 3-5-3 strategy may yet be successful.

I don't get how people are seeing 15% for Jeb in these numbers....Looking like 10% or less.

With Trump's anti-Muslim "talk," this will obviously help him the most.

Well, if Rubio can get it to be a 3 man race by the time we get to the winner-take-all states he can, not necessary will though,  win a majority of delegates on his own.

Will the following candidates final percentage be over or under the # I placed beside their name, as an example will Trump be over or under 30%.

So Trump's leading with economy and immigration (probably), Cruz with terrorism, and unknown with spending.

I understand. Trump will be under 30, Rubio will be over 22, Cruz will be over 20, Bush will be under 20, Kasich will be under 10, Carson will be under 7.

Why would Trump be leading with economy?

Do these exit polls account for the absentee ballots?

Why would Trump be leading with economy?

Because it was revealed earlier by ABC?
