Carly Fiorina has pushed to second place in the crowded Republican presidential field following a strong performance in the second GOP debate, according to a new poll.

The CNN/ORC International poll released Sunday morning shows Fiorina with 15 percent support among Republican respondents, up from 3 percent in a similar poll earlier this month.

Fiorina was widely praised for directly attacking Donald Trump at Wednesday night’s debate.

Fifty-two percent of Republicans said Fiorina won the debate, compared to 31 percent who said Trump was the winner.

Trump remains the front-runner with 24 percent, pollsters found. His support fell 8 percentage points from earlier this month, however.
