Donald Trump continues to hold a wide lead over his closest competitors in a new CNN/WMUR poll of New Hampshire voters, but shifts in the field since the Republican candidates debated in Simi Valley, California, have created a new top tier in the first-in-the-nation primary state.
Trump leads with 26% support among those who say they plan to vote in the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary, about the same as in a July WMUR/UNH poll in the state. Second place now goes to businesswoman Carly Fiorina with 16%, third to Sen. Marco Rubio with 9% and fourth to neurosurgeon Ben Carson with 8%. Ref. CNN
