Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ben Carson had an almost equal amount of support in a national poll released Sunday.
The NBC/Wall Street Journal poll showed that Trump had support from 21 percent of Republican primary voters and Carson, a retired neurosurgeon, had 20 percent.
Republican candidates Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina were tied for third place with 11 percent each.
The poll was conducted Sept. 20-24 among 230 GOP primary voters. Its margin of error was plus or minus 6.5 percentage points.

A very very rich man with a narcissistic personality disorder and a former physician who cannot understand science, U.S. history, and economics. Republicans, you really take the prize for choosing the worst possible, most ill-prepared, least capable candidates for president of the USA.
As exciting as this is, it really is pretty dumb to take a poll with 16(?) candidates seriously.
I think once the flies start dropping and there is a more narrow field is when things start to get real.
A lot can happen in 5 months
That said, it would be great for Dems if either of them is the final nominee.
And we wonder why the rest of the world laughs at us?
The republicans have gone completely batshit crazy to even consider either of these two clowns.
Republican id and super-ego tussle between the oafish Trump and the perfectionist Carson. Both mired in the same backwards GOP ideology.
