SIMI VALLEY, California — GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump is ahead in the polls, but a new study shows he dominated the focus of the second GOP presidential primary debate Wednesday evening, as roughly 44 percent of the questions asked of the candidates involved or referenced Trump.
CNN moderator Jake Tapper was frequently invoked for more time as candidates begged, interrupted or demanded their way back into air time at the debate last night.

John Kasich appeared to interrupt at the worst moments.

Carly Fiorina is banking on that, gaining strength as the campaign unwinds.
