Carson Leads Trump In Another National Poll

While Donald Trump continues to lead in some state polls, he again trails Ben Carson in the latest WSJ/NBC national poll. NBC News reports:

Ben Carson has surged into the lead of the Republican presidential race, getting support from 29 percent of GOP primary voters, according to a brand-new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll. That’s the highest percentage any GOP candidate has obtained so far in the survey. Carson’s 29 percent is followed by Donald Trump at 23 percent, Marco Rubio at 11 percent, Ted Cruz at 10 percent and Jeb Bush at 8 percent. These findings are similar to a New York Times/CBS poll released last week, which also showed Carson in first place in the national GOP contest. If past polling has been about Trump leading the GOP field, “then this survey is about Dr. Ben Carson, who is currently the man to beat for the Republicans,” says Democratic pollster Fred Yang, whose firm Hart Research Associates conducted this survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff.

Trump will be hitting the morning shows today to promote his latest book, Crippled America.
