When GOP voters were asked if they were to choose again, 29 percent still picked Trump followed by Sen. Ted Cruz with 15 percent. 14 percent picked Sen. Marco Rubio. The other candidates got less than 10 percent.

Last June, 44 percent of Republican voters said that Trump was the best option while another 44 percent disagreed.

Democrats seem to be happy with Hillary Clinton as their nominee. 53 percent said that Clinton is the best choice while only 37 percent said otherwise.

When asked who the Democrats would pick if they were to choose again, 47 percent still picked Clinton while 42 percent chose Sen. Bernie Sanders.
