The question allowed voters to select multiple candidates in an effort to “minimize spoilers and sabotage and give viability and visibility to minor candidates,” poll organizer Frank Attwood told Colorado Politics. The question included Democratic candidates such as Kamala Harris and Bernie Sanders, however, the leading candidates were all Republicans.
Following Trump was Texas Senator Ted Cruz with 43 percent, behind him was former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo with 39 percent, and South Carolina Senator Tim Scott with 36 percent.
