A Monmouth University/Gannett poll released this morning claims that John McCain is leading Rudy Guiliani in the New Jersey Presidential Primary, 29%-25% among "likely primary voters." Among known past primary voters, McCain leads Guiliani 32%-19%. 16% of likely voters and 22% of past primary voters are still undecided.
Adam Puharic's candidate, Mitt Romney, has the support of 9% of both the likely and past voters in New Jersey. Romney needs a win in Michigan today, after losing Iowa and New Hampshire. Polls have Romney and McCain in a dead heat in Michigan.
In the Democratic primary, Hillary Clinton's support in New Jersey remains at 42% since an October poll, while Barack Obama's support has risen 7 points to 30%. Obama's increase has come from voters who were supporting candidates who have dropped out of the race, voters who were undecided in October, and John Edwards.
The presidential primary takes place on February 5. Today is the last day to register to vote if you want to vote in the primary.
In local news, Matawan voters will select a Mayor today. The November election for Matawan Mayor resulted in a tie.

After South Carolina you will see Fred Thompson's numbers steadily grow. There is still time to jump on the Thompson band wagon. Go Fred Go!
"Adam Puharic's candidate, Mitt Romney, has the support of 9% of both the likely and past voters in New Jersey." That's actually not to bad. I think that's a higher percentage than the number of rank and file republicans who support Puharic.
GO FRED!!
It seems the best strategy is to come in third. The front runner status goes to the winner of the most recent primary and the annointed loser is always the guy who finished second. The worst thing to do is to win one and then come in second as you go from front runner to big loser in media coverage.
Then the media does a story on how Americans view the process as one big horse race.
And Adam said, "Waaaa!!! I want my Romney!!!"
McCain leading?? Rubbish.
Mitt Romney didn't exactly 'Lose' in Iowa or New Hamp. he still got delegates and that is the real point of primarys. Mitt will do really well and go on to get the nomination. Mccain is to doubtful and compromising. America needs Romneys economic vision.
