A new Emerson College survey of New Hampshire primary voters does not find either President Joe Biden or fat former President Trump in the lead of a general election matchup this November because they either didn’t ask the question or decided not to publish it, making it harder to shake the perception they’re a pro-MAGA propaganda operation masquerading as a mainstream pollster.

What else are we supposed to think if Emerson could poll the 2024 general election matchup in November 2023 but not in January 2024? All primaries are open in New Hampshire and if a voter’s already on the phone telling them their intent for the primary then why the hell couldn’t they take another 30 seconds to ask who they want to vote for in the general? We would love to see another explanation for this than the one we made up just now: That they weren’t happy to find Biden ahead of Trump in their last poll so they fucked off on it this time. Change our minds here, Emerson.

Anyway, in the findings Emerson actually did publish their Orange Allah leads Nimrata “Nikki” Haley 44 to 28 percent with Chris Christie – who dropped out after the poll was conducted – at 12 percent. Heels-wearing Florida Gov Ron DeSantis is in fourth at an abysmal 7 percent support. Half of Christie’s voters said they would back Haley as their second choice, which would still see Trump in a double digit lead over the Confederate-curious former South Carolina governor in the Granite State.

On the Dem side Biden as a write-in candidate leads Field of Dreams guy Dean Phillips 49 to 16 percent, with New Age weirdo Marianne Williamson in third at 5 percent and 27 percent undecided.
