Am I missing something here? Is it November 8, 2016 already? Has everyone voted? Is there even an officially nominated candidate for either side?

Keep in mind the article says it's too far out to be predictive, but the table really doesn't Cruz with the win, but only better than Trump. The margin of error at this point is ridiculously huge.

 Hillary Clinton vs.

Clinton GOP Toss Up Unpolled Polled + 2012
 Ted Cruz  197 108 123 110 255-160-123
 John Kasich  New!  90 73 54 321 245-239-54
 Donald Trump  180 37 163 158 260-115-163

As of March 28, 2016

I'd say, keep your powder dry for when the GOPe tries to subvert the will of the people during the convention.

I think if we had an election today between Clinton - Trump - Cruz it would be almost dead even between the 3 of them.

So, 2016 is a toss-up regardless of whether which nominees show up in November.

The Screech is just a tad closer.

Not buying it.

What states would Cruz win that Romney didn’t?

What states would Kasich win when, so far, he has only won Ohio?

Which states would Trump win? That is the great unknown. Many think he would take as few as McCain or as many as Reagan, because he doesn’t fit the typical Dem v GOP mold.

Were those who changes registration doing so only to vote for Trump in the primaries, but intent to return to the fold in November? Or are they intending to vote for Trump in November as well?

Funny considering he’s losing the primary.

None of this matters at this point. It is pure mental masterbation

Little early to be calling races, isn’t it? Kind of like calling a football game based on the score after only 5 minutes of play?

In the early years of WWII, the Axis countries were winning. Anyone predicting then would have said for sure the Allies would lose the war.

In early 1980, Reagan trailed Carter in every poll. Anyone predicting then would have said for sure that Carter would be re-elected easily.

“In politics, a week is an eternity” (Edward Heath). And we still have MANY weeks to go before the final vote, many weeks for Hillary to be attacked and brought down in the polls.

Current polls mean nothing. This fight has barely begun.

Cruz does not pick up any states Romney lost.
Fact.
