Republicans' 2016 Presidential primary preferences look like a bunch of scribbles when graphed



The behinders in 6/14-6/18 in NBC/WSJ poll: 
  • 1% - Trump, Kasich, Graham
  • 0% - Santorum, Jindal, Pataki
 % of Republican primary voters who would not support a particular candidate (same poll):
  • 66% - Donald Trump
  • 55% - Chris Christie
  • 49% - Lindsey Graham
  • 45% - Rand Paul
  • 44% - George Pataki
 
All to be taken with a big grain of salt.

What's the Matter with Polling? (The New York Times, 6/20/2015)
Election polling is in near crisis, and we pollsters know. Two trends are driving the increasing unreliability of election and other polling in the United States: the growth of cellphones and the decline in people willing to answer surveys. Coupled, they have made high-quality research much more expensive to do, so there is less of it. This has opened the door for less scientifically based, less well-tested techniques. To top it off, a perennial election polling problem, how to identify “likely voters,” has become even thornier.
