Most of the rest of the GOP field languishes in single digits

Washington CNN  — 

Donald Trump and Ben Carson continue to dominate the GOP presidential field, according to a new national poll.

About half of those surveyed supported either Trump or Carson, with Trump earning 26% support and the prominent neurosurgeon 23%, according to a Fox News survey released Wednesday.

Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz each earned 11% support, followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul each with 4% support. Former tech CEO Carly Fiorina garnered 3% and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie just 2%.

The last batch of public polling has shown similar groupings, with Carson and Trump dominating the rest of the Republican field. The Fox poll is also the second straight survey that Bush, a former front-runner, with only 4% support.

The entire Fox survey was fielded November 1-3, after the last CNBC debate, where Rubio and Cruz impressed. The poll surveyed 476 registered Republican voters has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
