Carly Fiorina — who was just bumped to the next undercard Republican presidential debate — said she’s “not as impressed by all this polling data as the media appears to be” in a Glamour magazine interview published Tuesday.
“I really am not as impressed by all this polling data as the media appears to be,” Fiorina told the conservative pundit S.E. Cupp during a stop in New Hampshire. “When Gallup, one of the nation’s most respected polling outfits, says they will not engage in horse race polling for the presidential race, because [the data is] so suspect, I think it tells you a lot.”
The piece noted that at the time of the interview, polling showed Fiorina tied for seventh place in the GOP field.
Fiorina also said she was surprised by the sustainability of Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump’s campaign.
Real Clear Politics has Fiorina’s national polling average at 2 percent. Trump, the leader of the GOP field, is at 34 percent.
