Washington (CNN)Ben Carson has surged in South Carolina to pull just ahead of Donald Trump -- a statistical dead heat -- in the Republican presidential primary in the key early state, according to a new poll.

In the Monmouth University poll released Monday, Carson led the Republican primary field with support from 28% of likely Republican South Carolina voters. Trump was close behind, at 27%, and no other candidates were within the margin of error.

The numbers are a shift from Monmouth's last South Carolina poll in late August, where Trump doubled Carson, 30% to 15%.

The numbers are also a shift from the CNN/ORC poll of South Carolina Republican primary voters in October, where Trump was ahead of Carson 36% to 18%.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio continued his trend of good polling results after a strong debate performance, coming in third behind the two front-runners with 11%.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz was in fourth, at 9%, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was in fifth, at 7%. No one else topped 2%.

Hillary Clinton has a commanding lead over Bernie Sanders in South Carolina, according to the results of a new poll released Tuesday.

Clinton has the support of 69 percent of likely voters in South Carolina's Democratic primary, while the independent Vermont senator trails with just 21 percent, according to the latest Monmouth University Poll. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley barely registers, with just 1 percent support.

South Carolina's Democratic primary is open to supporters of other parties, including Republicans and independents. When the poll's respondents are limited to self-described Democrats likely to vote in the primary, Clinton's lead is ever higher: 74 percent to Sanders' 16 percent.

The former secretary of state, who lost the 2008 South Carolina primary to then-Sen. Barack Obama, leads with African Americans — three out of four believe she would do an “excellent” or “good” job as president. Just over half feel the same about Sanders.

Clinton also has high favorable ratings (81 percent) compared with 7 percent unfavorable. Sanders has a 58 percent favorability rating, with 13 unfavorable and O’Malley has 18 percent favorable, 18 percent unfavorable.

The telephone poll was conducted Nov. 5-8 with 400 likely South Carolina Democratic primary voters. The margin of error is plus or minus 4.9 percentage points.

Shitty state, but quite important in (at least) the primary election. It's been known to make or break numerous campaigns.

I don't think I can trust the people that voted Lindsey Graham as senator

If it makes you feel better, he doesn't even have 1% in the poll.
