A new CNN/ORC poll in South Carolina finds Donald Trump leading the GOP field with 38%, followed by Ted Cruz at 22%, Marco Rubio at 14% support, Jeb Bush at 10%, Ben Carson at 6% and John Kasich at 4%.
Key takeaway: “The poll suggests Trump’s support may have softened after Saturday’s debate among the GOP candidates. In interviews conducted before the debate, 40% backed Trump, compared with 31% who said they supported him after the raucous matchup between the remaining candidates in the field.”
In the Democratic race, Hillary Clinton leads Bernie Sanders, 56% to 38%.
