MAY

Negative 39 45 percent favorability rating for Bush, and 36 percent saying hes about
right on issues, while 45 percent say hes not conservative enough;
53 9 percent favorable for Carson, and 56 percent saying hes about right on the issues;
Negative 32 56 percent favorable for Christie, and 52 percent saying hes not
conservative enough on issues;
59 19 percent favorable for Cruz, and 58 percent saying hes about right;
64 27 percent favorable for Huckabee, and 59 percent about right on the issues;
59 23 percent favorable for Paul, and 51 percent saying hes about right.
Looking at Walker, likely Republican Caucus participants say 69 11 percent that he is
honest and trustworthy; 72 10 percent that he has strong leadership qualities and 72 11
percent that he cares about their needs and problems.
Paul scores 77 13 percent for being honest and trustworthy, 70 19 percent for having
strong leadership qualities and 75 15 percent for caring for voter needs and problems.
Rubio is honest and trustworthy, voters say 72 13 percent; with 70 14 percent for
strong leadership qualities and 72 15 percent for caring for voter needs and problems.
Walker scores very highly on a variety of matrixes honesty, leadership, caring about
the needs of average folks and his favorability among caucus-goers, Brown said.
More of those surveyed view Bush unfavorably than favorably, compared to Walkers 51 positive ratio. And 45 percent say Bush is not conservative enough. Its among the GOP
conservative base that Bush finds himself trailing Sen. Ted Cruz, former Gov. Mike Huckabee
and Sen. Rand Paul.
For national unknowns like Walker and Rubio, a fast start in Iowa may be critical to
their chances of overall success, while supporters of national names like Bush note that fewer
than half of Iowa winners wind up inhabiting the Oval Office.
From April 25 May 4, Quinnipiac University surveyed 667 likely Iowa Republican
Caucus participants with a margin of error of +/- 3.8 percentage points. Live interviewers call
land lines and cell phones.
The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public
opinion surveys in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Virginia,
Iowa, Colorado and the nation as a public service and for research.
