In third place is Vice President Joe Biden with 22%. Though Biden has not formally entered the race there is a Draft Biden movement active for him in addition to speculation that he is seriously considering entering the nomination contest.

 September 22, 2015 - Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker ended his White House bid yesterday after a presidential run that lasted just 71 days. The early demise of the Walker campaign was due to his two debate performances which were viewed as being lackluster which led to his fundraising drying up.

For early parts of the year Walker was in the top three of candidates for the Republican nomination and other polls had him leading in all the important state of Iowa. Donald Trump's entry into the race  soon eclipsed Walker which saw the three time elected Governor of Wisconsin drop in national polls and Iowa.

The final strike for Walker came on Sunday when a new national poll out showed that he was now polling at less the one percent , which would of put him into jeopardy of being excluded from the main stage at the next debate.

September 20, 2015 - The latest poll out after the second Republican presidential debate has New York businessman Donald Trump still in the lead with 24%. Meanwhile, the fortunes of former CEO Carly Fiorina have dramatically changed as she is now in second place with 15% following what was considered an especially strong performance in the debate.

Coming in a close third is Dr. Ben Carson with 14%. Moving into fourth place is Senator Marco Rubio of Florida with 11%. Coming in at fifth is one time Republican front runner former Florida Governor Jeb Bush with 9%.

Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee find themselves tied at 6% each. In eight place is Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky with 4% following by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie in ninth place with 3%.

In tenth place is Ohio Governor John Kasich with 2% followed by former Senator Rick Santorum with 1%.

Also polling at less than one percent is former Virginia Governor Jim Gilmore, Senator Lindsay Graham of South Carolina, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal and former New York Governor George Pataki.

 September 20, 2015 - Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont has surged to a 1 point lead over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the latest poll out of Iowa. Sanders now has the support of 41% followed by Clinton at 40%.

Clinton has seen her leads in both Iowa and New Hampshire shrink all summer. Whether that's because  Sander's message is resonating with voters or because of the ongoing controversy over Clinton's use of a private email account during her time as Secretary of state is yet to be determined.

In a distant third place in the poll is Vice President Joe Biden with 12%. Biden has not officially entered the race for the Democratic presidential nomination but there has been buzz all summer that he may make a late entry. If he were to run for the White House this would be his third try after two unsuccessful attempts in 1988 and 2008.

In  fourth place at 3% is former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley , followed by former Senator Jim Webb of Virginia with 1%. Polling at 0% is the former Governor of Rhode Island Lincoln Chafee.
