Trump Trounces Carson By 14 Points in New National Poll

Just a day after a national poll showed Ben Carson leading Donald Trump in the Republican presidential contest, a new survey puts the billionaire developer 14 points ahead of the retired pediatric neurosurgeon.

The results of the Economist/YouGov Poll released Wednesday are:

• Trump: 32 percent.
• Carson: 18 percent.
• Marco Rubio: 11 percent.
• Jeb Bush and Ted Cruz: 8 percent.
• John Kasich and Rand Paul: 4 percent.
• Carly Fiorina: 3 percent.
• Chris Christie and Mike Huckabee: 2 percent.
• Lindsey Graham and Bobby Jindal: 1 percent.
• Rick Santorum: 0.5 percent.

The Economist/YouGov results differed sharply with the results of a CBS/New York Times poll showing Carson over Trump, 26-22 percent.

In the Economist/YouGov survey, 2,000 adults were questioned between Friday and Tuesday. The margin of error is 3 percent.
