A new Quinnipiac University Poll has Christie in 5th place among the GOP field with 6-percent support.

While those are not mind-blowing numbers, they represent growing momentum for Christie.

In the same poll taken last month, Christie was at just 2-percent.

He trails front-runners Donald Trump and Ted Cruz by a wide margin, but moved ahead of Jeb Bush.
