NORTH CAROLINA – Trump’s 8 point gain gives him the biggest momentum in the state over the last month. The other two candidates with upward momentum are Carson and Cruz. Carson’s gone from 9% to 14% as people’s first choice. […] Cruz has gone from 6% a month ago to his 10% standing now.

The losers in North Carolina over the last month are Walker, Huckabee, Paul, and Christie. Walker’s dropped 6 points from 12% last month to now 6%. His 51% favorability rating remains unchanged, but voters just seem to be finding others of their options to be more compelling.
It’s a similar story for Huckabee. His 60% favorability rating ties him with Rubio as the second most broadly liked candidate in the state behind Carson, but the share of voters who actually want him as the nominee has dropped from 11% to 6%.
The news is worse for Paul- he has seen a precipitous decline in his popularity. A month ago his favorability in the state was 49/22. Now it’s 31/47- it’s clear from three polls we’ve done now since the debate that it killed Paul’s image. He’s dropped from 7% to 3% in the horse race. Finally Chris Christie’s gone from 5% to 2%, making it 1%, 1%, and 2% in the three polls we’ve done since the debate. He remains very unpopular with a 23/55 favorability rating.  (read more)
