McClatchy/MSNBC / Mason Dixon
Date: 1/30-2/1
New Jersey
Est. MoE = 4.9% [?]

Date: 1/15-22

Est. MoE = 4.5% [?]

McCain could deny him victory in one of the Mayor's must win states.

Research 2000 for The Bergen Record
Date: 1/9-10
New Jersey
Est. MoE = 4.6% [?]

Quote:

McCain supporter Bill Baroni, a state senator from Mercer County, said that unlike campaigns for a state office where people often make a firm choice for senator or governor, presidential primaries are volatile and voters in one state influence those in another.

"In state after state, Senator McCain's momentum is palpable and we're seeing that in New Jersey as well. There's been a dramatic increase in e-mails and phone calls from people who want to become involved. We're very fortunate," Baroni said.
