New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie 16% Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin 13% Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida 9% Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas at 7%, Former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania 5%

In the meantime the numbers are meant to keep track of the current trends and attitudes toward all the names that may be in the race.
