Seven Republican Presidential Candidates

Seven in 10 American-Muslims will vote for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the November presidential elections while just four per cent from the community favoured Republican candidate Donald Trump, who has called for a controversial ban on Muslims entering the US.

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is leading Donald Trump by seven percentage points, a latest poll has said, while another survey projected her trailing the Republican candidate by a wafer-thin one point margin.

Seven Republican presidential candidates will participate in Fox Business Network's prime-time debate on Thursday, but Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky and former business executive Carly Fiorina did not qualify for the main event, the network said on Monday.

Republican support for U.S. presidential candidate Ted Cruz rose this week as voters keyed in on the senator from Texas as the top alternative to Donald Trump, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll on Friday.
