“These results mark a significant shake-up in the leaderboard from Monmouth’s Iowa poll taken
before the first debate,” said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling
Institute in West Long Branch, NJ. “Carson and, to a lesser extent, Fiorina have surged, while Walker
has faded into the background.”
In mid-July, Walker was the front runner in Iowa, with Trump and Carson following behind.
Since then, Walker’s support has dropped by 15 points, while Carson’s has increased by 15 points and
Trump’s by 10 points. Support has also increased for Fiorina by 7 points since Monmouth’s last Iowa poll.
Where is the Fiorina SURGE? LOL.
