Poll: Clinton TRAILS GOP Rivals In Colorado

[Segami]

Washington (CNN)Colorado could be big trouble for Hillary Clinton. The Democratic front-runner in the 2016 presidential race trails all the leading Republican contenders by 11 percentage points or more in the key swing state, a new Quinnipiac University poll shows.Florida Sen. Marco Rubio bests Clinton 52% to 38%, the biggest gap. Ben Carson wins a potential head-to-head matchup as well, with a 52% to 38% advantage. And Donald Trump leads 48% to 37%. Tim Malloy, the assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll, described it as a "chilly if not frigid reception" in Colorado for Clinton.

In the nominating contest, Colorado's GOP voters' preference carries little weight. The party's caucus doesn't count because it violates Republican National Committee rules that require states to bind their delegates to the winners of their votes.

First Clinton term and Obama's 2 terms are the exception.

5. It's an exception that is now the rule.

Presidential year voter turn-out is now solidly Democratic in CO. The Dem nominee will have no problem winning CO in the GE.

8. I continue to LOVE the various EMPHASIS points

It's like PLAYING bingo to see what the REAL intentions are with any post.

At least it's not first letter capitalized each word in a sentence. That drives the grammar side of me nuts.

9. I don't understand who these Ben Carson voters are.

The guy can hardly put together a complete sentence. He seems kind of high all the time.
