Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal today found himself placed at a distant 13th spot in a crowded race of Republican presidential aspirants, according to a latest national poll.
This means Jindal, the first-ever Indian American presidential candidate, will not be able to appear in the first Republican debate being conducted by Fox News next week.
Jindal, 44, also the first-ever Indian American Governor, has just two per cent of the votes as against the top ranking Donald Trump's 20 per cent, according to the poll.
