Iowa: Trump 30, Cruz 19, Rubio 13 / Clinton 44, Sanders 32
NH: Trump 29, Cruz 13, Rubio 9 / Sanders 42, Clinton 39

Did they poll the other Republicans? It looks like they did, numbers wise, though they don't seem to be reporting those #s.

>Weather Channel

The "inclement weather" data, however, is interesting. 25% will skip in ice, 17% in heavy snow, and 7% in snow of any kind.

Nickelodeon of course does a poll of its viewers for the general election.

What's the cutoff they gave for "heavy snow"?  6"? 12"? 18"? Or the rate at which it's falling (technically correct meaning of heavy snow)?

I suspect they just said "heavy snow," but I have no idea. 4 inches in 12 hours, I suspect, would qualify (it is the actual definition), but, again, I have no idea.

wouldn't mind seeing a PDF to see if TWC farmed it out to some firm or if they actually have an in-house polling firm.

Also, 36% not caucusing due to a tornado seems sorta low. How was that question asked?

I'm betting that they randomly asked people based on the ZIP codes they searched for weather on on weather.com. For instance, anybody searching for Des Moines weather conditions would get a pop-up asking them to complete a survey for the presidential primary. Actually interesting to a degree if true, as TWC probably has one of the more accurate and diverse audiences grouped by geography to sample in the first place, but it wouldn't surprise me if TWC's audience skews a bit older than the actual voting pool (which could explain the pro-Clinton bias relative to other pollsters).

Pigs are strongly for Cruz, but Parrots are on Team Trump. Sloths seem to be for Kasich and are more fiscally conservative than Monkeys.

Hey, they're great at forecasting weather. Why shouldn't they be just as great at polling elections?
