(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) After months of little separation, Scott Walker has pulled ahead of a crowded 2016 Republican presidential field.
With 25 percent of Republican primary voters’ support, the Wisconsin governor leads the pack, a new Public Policy Polling national survey has found. Ben Carson places second, with 18 percent, followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush with 17 percent and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee with 10 percent.
No other potential candidate — including New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul — garnered more than five percent.
