FOX News has released a new poll for the presidential nomination race. Marco Rubio takes the lead once again with 13%. Scott Walker is close behind at 12%. Rand Paul placed third with 10% and Jeb Bush and Mike Huckabee each received 9%. Ted Cruz polled at 8%.
Hillary Clinton still leads the Democrats with 62%. Elizabeth Warren is the runner-up with 12% and the FOX News poll gave Joe Biden 9%.
The polling averages have been updated.
Republican Nomination
1. Jeb Bush: 14.1%
2. Scott Walker: 13.2%
3. Marco Rubio: 9.7% (+2)
4. Ted Cruz: 9.2% (-1)
5. Rand Paul: 9.0% (-1)
6. Mike Huckabee: 8.5%
7. Ben Carson: 6.5%
8. Chris Christie: 5.5%
9. Rick Perry: 2.9%
10. Rick Santorum: 1.8%
11. John Kasich: 1.6%
12. Bobby Jindal: 1.3%
Rubio is now ahead of Cruz and Paul and is in third place. There has clearly been a loss of support for the front-runners, Bush and Walker, ever since Rubio, Cruz, and Paul launched their campaigns.
Democratic Nomination
1. Hillary Clinton: 59.9%
2. Elizabeth Warren: 12.1%
3. Joe Biden: 11.4%
4. Bernie Sanders: 4.2%
5. Martin O'Malley: 1.3%
6. Jim Webb: 1.1%
The Democratic field is much more static and much less competitive than the Republican field. Everyone has polled quite consistently so far. However, Warren has managed to overtake Biden and O'Malley and Webb are no longer tied.
