2012 GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney leads the rest of the Republican field by a wide margin in New Hampshire, according to a new poll conducted jointly by Suffolk University and WHDH TV.
Romney, the former Governor of Massachusetts who also ran for president in 2008, has a 27-point lead over his nearest rival, Texas Congressman Ron Paul.
With strong ties to the New England area, Romney is expected to win New Hampshire, a key primary state next year. Romney (41%), Paul (14%) and former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman (10%) were the only candidates to receive double-digit support from voters who took part in the survey.
Just 8% of those who were polled said they preferred the presumptive frontrunner in the race, Texas Governor Rick Perry.
