The new, wider lead John McCain opened up over Mike Huckabee last week in national Republican preferences continues to hold. After leading Huckabee by 22 to 34 percentage points at various times after Mitt Romney's departure from the race, McCain's lead widened to 40 points in Gallup's Feb. 18-20 interviewing, reported last Thursday.

The latest three day rolling average finds 63% of Republican and Republican-leaning voters supporting McCain, compared with 21% backing Huckabee -- a 42-point lead for McCain. -- Lydia Saad
