Mitt Romney, the Republicans' 2012 presidential nominee has repeatedly said he will not run for president again in 2016 and has missed the deadline for the New Hampshire primary, but a new poll shows that if he did run, he'd beat front-runner Donald Trump 2-1.
The Suffolk University/Boston Globe poll of likely New Hampshire Republican primary voters showed Romney would take 31 percent of the vote compared to Trump's 15 percent,
The Boston Globe reports.
Here's how the poll shakes out without Romney in it:
- Donald Trump: 22 percent
- Marco Rubio: 11 percent
- Ben Carson: 10 percent
- John Kasich: 9 percent
- Ted Cruz: 9 percent
- Jeb Bush: 8 percent
- Other candidates had 4 percent or less.
The poll was taken Tuesday through Thursday and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percent.
