These 3 VERY Different Republicans Are All But Deadlocked At The Top Of The Polls
A poll released Thursday could set the tone for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination over the next several months.
In the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted between May 30 and June 3, former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida leads all GOP contenders with 10 percent. The poll surveyed 954 Republicans and independents.
Close behind is former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas and Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky with 9 and 8 percent respectively. You can view the results below:

When the field was narrowed down to Bush, Republican Governor Scott Walker (Wisc.), and Huckabee, Bush and Walker tied for 23 percent each. Huckabee was close behind with 20 percent.
In an abstract for the poll, Ipsos affirmed that the race for the Republican nomination “continues to be wide open.”
Bush tweeted Thursday that he will be making a “big announcement” on Monday June 15, when he is expected to formally announce his bid for the White House. Many were less than inspired by the news, however:
@JebBush please take an extended vacation say like for the next 10 years.
