Three political outsiders with no prior experience in political office are now leading in California among Republicans likely to vote in the state's June 2016 presidential primary. Businessman Donald Trump, at 17%, and physician Ben Carson, at 15%, and businesswoman Carly Fiorina, at 13%, are besting the crowded field of current an d former U.S. Senators and Governors, who collectively receive 42% of the vote. Another 13% are undecided

The findings come from a Field Poll completed September 17-October 4, 2015 among 1,002 registered voters in California, of whom 214 are consider likely to vote in next year's June Republican presidential primary election.

Come on Barbara Boxer....help us put Snarly Carly back in her box!!!
I don’t think it is useless. It yields results surprisingly close to, in line with other national polls.
A little bit of perspective...
California has open primaries now. So out of that 214, they may have polled anywhere up to 214 Democrats.
Well in order to interview 214 republicans here, you have to have interviewed some of us twice...
I repeat 7% margin of error 214 interviews done over 2+ weeks? What is that?
Carly Fiorina outsider or GOPe candidate
I am in California, BTW.
I noticed that...hence the comment I made on Boxer....
Wish I could be more optimistic as I lived most of my life there. At the end of the day, they will vote for the Dem no matter who it is. Glad I left 16 years ago.
Yes...
Heh heh heh...
GOPe...
Outsider when it comes to Conservatives.
Truth be told, even though they are political enemies, Boxer, the Left, and the GOPe (same as Left), each would support her.
She’s their type of Republican.
Then they need her to run against hillary in the RAT party NOT ours!!!
Well sure, but then a more Conservative person might get elected from our party. Can’t have that you know.
With the obvious lack of leadership being displayed in the HOR, why should anyone be surprised that citizens are looking outside of the DC cesspool, to find a presidential candidate to support.
