Mitt Romney now holds a 4-point national lead over Newt Gingrich, Gallup finds.

Romney passes Ron Paul while Rick Santorum leapfrogs into third place; Gingrich fades to fourth.

The two are now tied nationally at 25 percent among registered Republican voters in Gallup's poll.

With the caucus one week away, Ron Paul is standing his ground in Iowa, according to a Public Policy Poll.

More people approve of the job President Obama is doing than disapprove, according to Gallup's polling.

Romney's reclaimed his lead over the rest of the GOP field, according to a Boston Globe poll released on Sunday.

Ron Paul leads in Iowa, according to an American Research Group poll released on Friday, but Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are close behind.

Paul took 21 percent of likely Iowa caucus-goers, followed by Romney at 20 percent and Gingrich at 19 percent. Rounding out the field are Rick Perry at 9 percent, Michele Bachmann at 8 percent, Jon Huntsman at 6 percent, Rick Santorum at 4 percent and Buddy Roemer at 1 percent.

It’s the first ARG poll to show Paul in the lead, and shows just how wide-open the race for Iowa is with less than two weeks before caucus-goers vote on Jan. 3.

The fight over extending the payroll tax holiday hurt the GOP, Public Policy Polling found.

President Obama’s approval rating among Hispanics is on a long slide, according to an Ipsos-Telemundo poll released on Thursday.

Ron Paul leads the GOP presidential field in Iowa, according to an Iowa State University poll released on Wednesday, and his supporters are far more likely to say that they are “definitely” going to vote for him on caucus day.

Paul took 27.5 percent of the vote, narrowly edging Newt Gingrich, who came in second at 25.3 percent. Rounding out the field are Mitt Romney at 17.5 percent, Rick Perry at 11.2 percent, Michele Bachmann at 7.4 percent and Rick Santorum at 4.9 percent.

But perhaps the biggest sign of strength for the Texas lawmaker is his solid base of support in what has been an otherwise fluid race. Fifty-one percent of Paul’s supporters said they “definitely” backed the candidate, compared to only 16.1 percent for Romney and 15.2 percent for Gingrich.
