December was the last time a poll was taken, and dont expect another poll, until sometime next week. Pollsters say making predictions in the silver state is hard. The nature of caucusing is not always a sure thing. Thats because people can change their mind. . Another reason predictions are hard here . This is only the third time our state has taken part in a caucus so it is tough to get a large sample of caucus goers. Institution that is willing to pay for polling. All of which makes our caucuses nearly impossible to predict. But that doesnt mean nevada has no influence.

So those candidates will be back, the media will be back. The county like Washoe County is one of 110 counties that always voted the right way, in determining who the winner will be. So we have a lot of reasons for nevada remaining in the lime light. The poll taken in december by Gravis Marketing showed donald trump and hillary are clinton the favorites in our state.
