First Read's Morning Clips: New Polls in Nevada, S.C.

 
OFF TO THE RACES: Trump way ahead in Nevada, per poll

The GOP state of play in Nevada, from a new CNN/ORC poll: Trump up big, with Rubio and Cruz fighting for second place. And on the Dem side: "Overall, 48% of likely caucus attendees say they support Clinton, 47% Sanders. Both candidates carry their demographic strong points from prior states into Nevada, with Clinton holding an edge among women, while Sanders tops the former secretary of state among voters under age 55. One exception emerges though: Although the pool of potential caucusgoers in Nevada is more racially diverse than those who participated in Iowa or New Hampshire, the racial divide among likely caucusgoers isn't nearly as stark as among voters in South Carolina, with both white and non-white voters about evenly divided between the two candidates."
