“Donald Trump holds a 10-point lead over Carly Fiorina in the latest CNN/WMUR poll.
The new poll finds Trump receiving 26 percent support from New Hampshire’s likely Republican presidential primary voters. Another 8 percent pick the outspoken billionaire as their second choice.
Those results are up from a similar CNN/WMUR sampling in July, when Trump received 23 percent support from the same demographic. ...
Carson receives 8 percent support while Bush and Kasich tie at 7 percent.”

And looky Dr. Ben faded to only 8%.
CNN polled NH in July and then again in September. You can’t tell anything about current trends based on polls that far apart.
