The GOP presidential primary in Wisconsin has officially become a three-way race.
According to a new Marquette University poll, Ben Carson, Donald Trump and Marco Rubio have separated themselves from the pack and currently dominate the rest of the GOP field in the Badger State, with Carson leading slightly overall.
The former neurosurgeon enjoys 22 percent support, putting him ahead of Trump and Rubio, who are both tied with 19 percent.
Sitting back in the pack are Sen. Ted Cruz and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who pull 9 percent and 6 percent, respectively.
In the previous Marquette poll released in late September, Trump led with 20 percent, while Carson (16 percent) and Rubio (14 percent) trailed closely behind.
The new poll is a boon for Rubio, who jumped five percentage points from the September poll and into the top tier. In addition, the Florida senator saw a nine-point swing in a head-to-head matchup with Hillary Clinton and now leads 45-44 over the prohibitive Democratic front-runner. Previously, Clinton led Rubio 48-40.
Carson, who has seen some bumps in the road in recent weeks, also leads the former secretary of state by the same margin. However, Clinton continues to trounce Trump, topping him by a 10-point margin, 48-38.
