Carson had lost ground in the days immediately following the terrorist attacks in Paris. Just two days ago, Carson was in 4th place with 9.8 percent, behind Donald Trump and Sens. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).
The latest tracking poll, covering November 22-27, finds Donald Trump first with 31 percent, followed by Carson with 14.9 percent. Sens. Rubio and Cruz are tied with 8.4 percent each. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is 5th, with 6.5 percent.
According to the updated numbers, Trump has lost most of the polling bounce he received after the Paris terror attacks. Following the attacks, Trump saw his support explode to almost 43 percent, up sharply from the low-to-mid 30s he’s held over the last two months.
Daily fluctuations in tracking polls should always be viewed with some caution, as they are built on a small number of interviews conducted each day. They are very accurate at assessing overall trends, but numbers on a particular day can be overstated.
This is especially true when the tracking period includes a major holiday like Thanksgiving. Friday’s tracking numbers include Black Friday, Thanksgiving, and the day before the holiday, the biggest travel day of the year.
On Wednesday’s tracking poll, for example, businesswoman Carly Fiorina had 2.9 percent support. On Thursday and Friday, though, she registered no support. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) registered zero support as well. Meanwhile, former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore earned 3.2 percent support on Thursday and 2.8 percent support on Friday.

First, thank you for your service.
Second, I tend to babble a little but i’m harmless and very conservative :)
Have a good one Freeper!
Sorry, but you really sound like a plant!
So who are you working for and why?
Cruz...I volunteered but never heard back.
I should probably call to follow up.
If you read my back posts, you’d find I’m consistently for Cruz.
And if I’m a plant, I’ve donated alot of dough to the site to be one!!
3 hundred more plants like me and Freepathons would be over in a month.
Well, okay but you certainly are strange fellow regarding religion and such... Sorry but not one of Cruz supporters that I would want to associate with. Good luck.
Not happy that such fellows as you would be supporters.
We really got off to a bad start!!
I saw a thread maybe a week ago where some of the discussion was about his religion.
I just said to you that I couldn’t comment on that because I dont know any.
And I’m catholic, but no fanatic, believe me.
I will just scrape by getting into Heaven, I hope :)
He is far less knowledgeable about factual history and geopolitics than many posters on FR !
No, I still think you are a strange fellow... That is my problem.
And yet, I would take him in a minute before Obama, what does that say?
I say that you are a fool and worse and lay off that other poster whom you are bedeviling for NO purpose at all! He’s fine, but you aren’t !
Makes me feel bad that someone whose record i admire so much feels that way, but i wont bug you anymore.
My Brother in law served for a year in VN as a medical assistant for the marines. He died three years ago and my sister got a monetary award from the government.
He died of a heart attack and it had been attributed to Agent Orange.
They played Taps at his funeral. First time I ever saw that and it was tear-jerking.
The flag was draped. It was only three years ago but I dont remember if it was already draped or done in front of us.
Good night.
how did i miss this post. That was hysterical!!
going for the Bloods and Crips vote!
you’re crazy bro. ciao.
I try hardly...
“346 respondents: Trump 31%- 11/27”
Yeah I noticed. Dummies get fooled. Reuters is selectively polling here.
GO LOOK INTO THE NEAREST MIRROR OR SHINY/REFLECTIVE OBJECT !
Let me guess... close friend of dp0622? That’s okay though as I have no problems with your or his beliefs. I just stick to mine. Heh... You do not seem to clarify.
I do like that shinny object thingy though...
You obviously have a very great "problem" with his posts, himself, and have treated him shabbily; to say the least. You've picked on him, insulted him at every turn, and now butter wouldn't melt in your mouth, since I slammed you for what you've posted.
