A new Public Policy Polling survey finds Rick Santorum is headed for a commanding win in Louisiana on
Saturday. He leads Mitt Romney, 42% to 28%, followed by Newt
Gingrich at 18%, Ron Paul at 8% and Buddy Roemer at 2%.
Key findings: “It’s interesting to look at these numbers in the context of last week’s
results in Alabama and Mississippi. Mitt Romney averaged 30% in those
two contests, and that’s about where he is here. Rick Santorum and Newt
Gingrich combined for 64% in those two contests, and they combine for a
relatively similar 60% here. The big difference though is that
conservative voters appears to be abandoning Gingrich for Santorum now,
and that’s why Louisiana is likely to be much more lopsided than either
of last week’s contests were.”
A new American Research Group survey shows Santorum leading Romney, 43% to 27%, followed by Gingrich at 20% and Paul at 6%.
