Among Republicans only, the poll shows Paul and Cain tied at 22 percent, followed by Gingrich at 21 percent. The full results will be released Wednesday, but will not include opinions sampled after Tuesday night?s CNN foreign policy debate in Washington, D.C.

Earlier this month, two Iowa polls found Paul in second place. A Bloomberg poll found Paul in a statistical four-way tie for first place, at 19 percent, and an Iowa State University poll found him trailing only Cain, at 20.4 percent.

Political observers have suggested Paul could win in Iowa as a result of socially conservative voters being split between several candidates.

The poll was conducted by TeleResearch, with a sample size of 2,900 and a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points. A total of 700 likely Republican caucus-goers were included in the sample.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Iowa Republican caucus-goers shows Gingrich with 32% followed by former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney at 19%. Georgia businessman Herman Cain, who led in Iowa last month, drops to third with 13% of the vote. Texas Congressman Ron Paul draws 10% of the vote in Iowa, while Texas Governor Rick Perry and Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann each grab six percent (6%).
