Another Bush for President? Not So Fast, Say Republicans

Republican voters might not be entirely onboard with Jeb Bush running for president, according to a poll released Monday.

The Rasmussen Reports poll found only33 percent of likely GOP voters believe Bush should run for president in 2016. Nearly the same amount (34 percent) said they believe Bush should run, while another 33 percent said they weren't sure.

When considering both Republicans and Democrats in the survey, over half -- 53 percent -- said they didn't believe Bush should run for president.

Bush's family ties could hurt his chances at becoming president -- the poll found nearly half (49 percent) said his relationship to George Bush and George W. Bush would make them less likely to vote for Bush in 2016.

The survey of 1,000 likely voters was conducted Dec. 28 by Rasmussen Reports. The sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95 percent level of confidence.
