Via Alexander Burns, a new poll has him trailing in Nevada, a heavily Mormon state previously viewed as a firewall:
Magellan Strategies today released the results of an autodial survey of 631 likely 2012 Nevada Republican Presidential caucus attendees. The survey finds Rick Perry leading Mitt Romney by 5 points. Among all voters, Rick Perry has 29% support and Mitt Romney has 24% support. The rest of the Republican field rounds out with Herman Cain with 7%, Michele Bachmann with 6%, Ron Paul with 6%, Newt Gingrich with 5%, Rick Santorum and Jon Huntsman both with 1%
As I've noted before, supporters of Bachmann, Cain and Gingrich -- who may all be gone by the Nevada Caucus -- are probably easier for Perry than Romney to pick up.
