(LA Times) Donald Trump has been toppled by Sen. Ted Cruz for the Republican nomination for president, according to a new NBC News/WSJ poll.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz now is the first choice of GOP Primary Voters nationwide at 28% to 26% for Donald Trump, followed by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio at 17% – Ohio Gov. John Kasich at 11% – Dr. Ben Carson at 10% and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush at 4%

The results from the poll conducted subsequent to Donald Trump’s victory in New Hampshire and Saturday’s GOP Debate in South Carolina are a significant reversal from last month when Trump held a 13 pt lead over Cruz — 33% to 20%
