Businessman Herman Cain continues to lead in a poll of Iowa GOP caucus-goers, conducted completely after sexual allegations levied against him by multiple women were made public. Cain leads with 24.5 percent of the vote, Rep. Ron Paul is second with 20.4 percent, and former Mass Gov. Mitt Romney is third with 16.3 in a poll from Iowa State University from Nov. 1st to the 13th.

However, in keeping with the nature of the GOP race, pollsters said that the current numbers are subject to rapid change.

From ISU:

But the race remains remarkably fluid. Respondents were asked how certain they were of their choice and the majority of them (52.3 percent) indicated that they were undecide. Another 30.1 percent answered that they were only leaning toward one candidate. Only 16.5 percent indicated that they had definitely decided whom they would support.
