Looks like a trash poll but that swing is hilarious.

How could they find Cruz with such a big lead?

Call me crazy, but I would not be surprised to see Cruz win Iowa by a similar margin on caucus night.  They might be on to something.

If he really surges in these final days, maybe he can come close to getting a third of the percentage that his old man did!

Poll was in the field from Jan. 5-22, so any recent momentum from any of the candidates is going to be washed out by the fact that it's being averaged with responses from early/mid-January.

Well, at least he'd be better positioned for 2020, because that's all the hope I can hold on to :P

This basically means that this poll is junk. You can't stay in the field that long and get a scientific result.

The Rand numbers are probably the most accurate part of these polls

. Yeah.  Too long a period,  but Cruz supporters will tout this..The midpoint of the survey is about 1/13.

It might not produce a data point that you're interested in, but it's still a scientific result, (or at least can be if done properly). It would represent the average support for each candidate over the time period in question.

this poll is fine if you put a data point at the midpoint of the survey period as I do a graph.

Paul has been showing up in 5th in a lot of IA polls in the last week, probably getting him into the debate. He is having a mini resurgence in Iowa.

The poll was conducted for 2.5 weeks. Please stop being so hackish.

This one look different than a lot of polls.

Clinton 47
Sanders 45

()

"Jeb Bush (3.8 percent), Mike Huckabee (3.7 percent) and Carly Fiorina (1.1 percent). Rick Santorum, Chris Christie and John Kasich registered less than 1 percent"

The new ISU/WHO-HD poll was compiled through phone interviews with 722 registered voters Jan. 5-22

And looking at the day, I guess this is why.  Cruz was leading in early January.

Yeah, this poll was discussed in this thread:

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=227333.0

As noted in that thread, the time baseline is remarkably long.
