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.

    No one is impressed by Fiorina.

  2. Carly has grainy B&W footage of Real Clear Politics harvesting the brain from her aborted campaign as it lays there kicking and screaming.

    Florina should take this as a giant hint to get out the race. The only reason she is staying in is that she still has another couple hundred lies to tell and she wants to get them all out there before hanging it up.

  4. Carly Fiorina Is Not Impressed By Polls Showing Her In 7th Place.

    But Carly Fiorina is as impressed as ever by Carly Fiorina, apparently.

  5. She’s right; for all we know, due to the “suspect” nature of the data, the margin of error could be 2000%, which would mean she’s really the leader.

    Damned media!
