Donald Trump, the GOP frontrunner, hit the 40 percent marker in a recent Gravis Marketing poll. According to a report, this is the first time a candidate has reached above the 30 percent mark.
Since the previous survey done by Gravis Marketing on July 31, Trump increased almost 10 points. Dr. Ben Carson increased 7 points and was named the winner in a Post GOP Debate Poll.
Trump, Carson, and Fiorina three of the top five GOP presidential candidates, have never held office.
The Gravis results were as follows:
Donald Trump – 40.1%
Ben Carson – 13%
Jeb Bush – 10%
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)96%
– 7 %
Carly Fiorina – 5.2%
John Kasich – 4.8%
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)80%
– 4.7%
Mike Huckabee – 3.7%
Scott Walker – 3.5%
Rick Perry – 1.5%
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)93%
– 1.5%
Chris Christie – 1.4%
George Pataki – 1.1%
Rick Santorum – 1%
Bobby Jindal – 0.9%
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)47%
– 0.6%
The poll surveyed 3,567 voters randomly across the United States. It had a margin of error of plus or minus two percent and was conducted August
One America News Network commissioned Gravis to do the poll. That network is like a Fox News alternative but it only came about in 2013 so most cable companies, like mine, don't carry it. I think Dish carries it.

Every single poll has Trump far ahead with his lead increasing over the last poll.

Every single one.
I was just anticipating the question like "What the bleep is Gravis?" I had never heard of the network One America (who paid Gravis to do the poll) so I checked my cable company's website and see people are asking for it in their forum but they don't carry it yet. I'm intrigued that they are a Fox News alternative.
Glad that Walker is nowhere near the top. The guy has creepy face.
Hope Ted Cruz will go down the drain soon too. He's already gearing up to use the next government fiscal voting session as hostage to his new pet cause, defunding Planned Parenthood. It was Obamacare that he took hostage the last time he shut down the government. The guy is absolutely a genius for picking the wrong pet cause to root for - with no thought of financial repercussions to the regular Joes.
Trump will be the candidate. A lot of folks eating their words.
