Republican presidential candidate and retired neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson led in support from GOP primary voters in a second national poll released Monday.
In the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, Carson had 29 percent support. Real estate mogul Donald Trump followed at 23 percent and Sen. Marco Rubio (FL) had 11.
The survey also showed that 50 percent of Republican primary voters chose Carson as either their first or second choice in the GOP race.
It’s the second national poll Carson has beat out Trump. A CBS News/New York Times poll released last week also placed the former surgeon at the top spot.
The NBC/WSJ poll was conducted from Oct. 25 to Oct. 29 among 400 GOP primary voters. The poll has a margin of error of plus-minus 4.9 percentage points.
“Loser leads loser in trend reversal. Loser candidates trailing.”
This cries out for a “Downfall” parody. They’re often very amusing. Not as amusing as Trump when he’s even mildly disappointed, though, so it’s all good.
Sell a bunch of books while you can, Dr. Carson.
O Liberals! See how we make you’re heads explode! All the black people shall vote for him and the GOP shall be victorious once again!
Only in America could a man who has no idea what the debt limit means, but who believes that the story of Noah’s ark is literally true, be taken seriously as a candidate for president by millions of people.
Thomas Jefferson would weep.
