First of all, it's still extremely early in the race. More than a year.

The GOP is running ahead of this thing because they all feel they have a chance. Unlike the Dems, who now have two front-runners (maybe more when/if Biden decides to run), the Repugs didn't have a clear favorite until the media elected Trump.

The Dems knew Hillary would run & for a while was the clear favorite to win it all. Then she felt the Bern & now it's a two horse race.
