Donald Trump leads native son Sen. Marco Rubio 45 – 22 percent among Florida likely Republican primary voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today, with 18 percent for Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and 8 percent for Ohio Gov. John Kasich. This compares to a 44 – 28 percent Trump lead over Rubio in a February 25 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University.

In Ohio, Gov. Kasich trails Trump 38 – 32 percent, compared to a 31 – 26 percent Trump lead February 23. Cruz has 16 percent, with 9 percent for Rubio.

Trump dominating in FL and leading Kasich by 6 in Ohio.

Turn the lights out Rubio...the parties over.

[DouglasKC]

Should be all but over by Tuesday...are both of these states winner take all?

[tatown]

Nice...!

Trump poll ping.

Kasich tells Romney stay away from him.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Kamikaze’s Kasich and Rubio are doing harm to the primary process. Get out. You cannot win.

I don't see any polls from MO, but it's another Winner-Take-All state, and I think Trump should fight hard for that one too next Tuesday.

People who bet with their own money, seem to think its essentially a TIE in Missouri between Trump(48% probability) and Cruz(49% probability) based on https://electionbettingodds.com/mo.html

But based on GOP sentiment within the last month from people who answered the question... "Who do I side with?"... Trump should be the favorite in Missouri.
His numbers in MO are similar to KY, where he easily beat Cruz and Rubio by a decent margin.

Kentucky	Missouri	Ohio	Florida
Trump: 34%	Trump: 35%	Trump: 34%	Trump: 39%
Rubio: 21%	Rubio: 21%	Rubio: 17%	Rubio: 23%
Cruz:: 13%	Cruz:: 18%	Cruz:: 14%	Cruz:: 12%
Kasich: 9%	Kasich: 7%	Kasich:21%	Kasich: 9%

Amnestio is going down. Not a surprise.

[BlueNgold]

Yes, these should both be true winner take all.

Tuesday should tell us much.

[rbg81]

Rubio obviously needs more Romney robocalls and Jeb Bush’s endorsement. Yeah—that’s the ticket!

[Lagmeister]

There’s more to this... Cruz doesn’t have 20% in either Florida or Ohio. He is just as dead as Rubes. Come on folks. This is the Oligarchy against the people. Any vote for Cruz denies the quick win for Trump. Time to get real here.

[BlueNgold]

I don’t think MO is a true WTA. I think it’s by district.

Trump actually needs to win both Ohio and Florida. He needs them both if he is going to win the nomination outright. Right now the not-Tump numbers are greater than the Trump numbers. So he needs to get almost all of the winner-take-all states if he wants to win the nomination before the convention.

Another 100 million of 24-7 stereo surround TV ads should do the trick!

winning breeds winning

WOOHOO GO.TRUMP.GO!!!

Yes, these should both be true winner take all. Tuesday should tell us much.

Trump could very well be 1/2 the way there in delegate count. Cruz supporters are satisfied trading FG's for touchdowns. I'll take that all day long.

I think the faux Cruz resurgence was put to rest last night, he finished terribly in Michigan and Mississippi, lost in Hawaii and won in Idaho. No slam on the good people of Idaho, but Cruz can win states where there are more cows than people. I'll give him Nebraska, Kansas, Wyoming and Idaho all day long. We can win Florida, Pa, Massachusetts and Ohio and win the nomination. The numbers are increasingly impossible for Ted, he is up to having to take 60% of the remaining delegates to win. That's a statistical unlikelihood. Trump wins Florida, Ohio and Missouri and it's lights out, it's really all over.

This will be the end of Trump winning and yet Lyin’ Ted receiving half the delegates. The gap is about to widen to the point even the Bush brother, Fiorina, and Beck cannot bridge it.

This has been Trump’s plan all along. Any of the caucuses and delegates he’d pick up from the smaller states like Idaho are gravy. He’s following his flight plan.
