Ted Cruz has the lead in Wisconsin as its primary nears, up 43 percent to 37 percent over Donald Trump in an electorate that plays to Cruz's strengths, where Republicans are apt to call themselves "very" conservative and Cruz seems poised to take advantage.
He dominates among the voters looking for the most "consistent conservative" as their next nominee over other attributes, taking eight in ten of them.
The endorsement of Republican Gov. Scott Walker has been a bit of a boost as well, with Republicans more likely to say it helped Cruz more than hurt.
In Trump's home state of New York, however, Trump has a dominant lead over the field, 52 percent to 21 percent for Cruz and 20 percent for Kasich. The billionaire leads by wide margins as best to handle multiple issues including terrorism, bringing back jobs, and the ability to defeat Hillary Clinton if she is the Democratic nominee.
And in Pennsylvania, coming up at the end of April, Trump also enjoys a strong lead at 47 percent while Cruz and Kasich are well back at 29 percent and 22 percent respectively.

By inference because Ted said Kadich must get out since he has no way to win. Old debate tactic to drop an implication Nd then deny it when it is picked up
Scariest thing about Ted is how he uses people. Where is Glenn now? Not on the campaign trail with Ted
The way Heidi talks about how “we” are at the right moment in time for a man of God to be president and that she thinks it’s Ted. I think Ted believes he is an mounted and can do no wrong. Just depressing
What a load of bullshit. Seriously you actually believe this? If you do then we are in bigger trouble than I thought.
Ted Cruz voted to give Obama authority for TPP, that’s a historical fact.
Ted’s wife Heidi is pushing the “North American Union” project, which is like NAFTA on steroids. You don’t think Ted supports his wife?
The Cruzes have sold their souls to the globalists. Tell me what part I’m missing here.
I did it last night. And even if it is mostly a split, Trump ends up with around 1250.
Almost at 50 in PA as well. I guess there is a bunch of hallucinogenic cheese being eaten by locals in WI.
Hillary is doing worse than trump.
She might lose WI and NY.
I always have to laugh at stupid comments like these. You try to compare two different polls from different polling organizations and infer some kind of trend. It doesn't work that way, bub. Now if you had a previous poll from this same company and there was a change, you MIGHT be able to see the beginnings of a trend. But basically you have four polls from different organizations all showing a lead for Cruz of 6-10 points - four polls that basically agree on a significant lead for Cruz. That would be the trend to look at - not the difference from the Fox poll to the Loras poll for example, which can't be compared to each other.
Facts are pesky little things. Just cause you worship at the feet of Trump doesn't make your accusations truthful. TPA & TPP ARE NOT THE SAME THING!! Cruz is on record (him and four other senators) to vote against it.
and from Trump loving Breitbart:

I like Trump but I prefer Cruz. Attacking one with lies and innuendo does not advance the other. In the end we want the same thing but let's keep it real.
For that reason, I hope it it at least close enough for it to be a statistical tie and not a Cruz blowout. Do these polls take into consideration the open primary and that many Democrats may cross over to vote Trump?
Almost as interesting is the Shrillary/Bernie race on the Democrat side. Bernie had blowout victories last weekend in three states and has now won 5 of the past 6 Democrat contests by huge margins. A solid victory by Bernie in WI will sow seeds of doubt on the Shrillary campaign as we head into NY. Bernie has been here in NY the past week drawing huge crowds.
I'm definitely not a Bernie cheerleader but anything that causes Shrillary's campaign acute discomfort during the remaining primaries is fine by me. My ideal scenario for the Democrats is that we go into the DNC convention with Bernie slightly ahead on earned "won" delegates, forcing Shrillary to use her super delegates to put her over the top. That would cause the Bernie supports to go absolutely nuts and will cause them to either sit November's election out or perhaps even vote for Trump.
Interesting times ahead. I do firmly believe Trump will eventually get the nomination as I see no way for Cruz to get to 1237, no matter how well he does Tuesday in WI. However, a WI loss to Cruz will make it rather difficult for Trump to get 1237 on the first ballot (he'd have to win something like 70-75% of the remaining delegates). If Trump goes into the RNC convention with at least 1100, I think he'll be just fine - though there will be drama.
Cruz still has ways to win.
Nifster, Rumors of the affair appear on line on The Hill’s comment section the day (6/9/15).
This is the announcement day of her upcoming departure from Cruz’s office. This is 30 days prior to her exit from the Cruz campaign. People in his own office or those that were near the alleged relationship most have been a talking.
So no, TeamCruz did not ‘plant’ the story of numerous affairs. That would not be a good campaign strategy for any politician. The only time alleged affairs are helpful is when they are needed to dispel a candidate’s ‘gay image’.

What does defending him with lies and innuendo do?
TPA enables TPP. Just like the Corker bill enabled the Iran deal. Ted Cruz voted to enable both TPP and the Iran deal. It’s the equivalent of voting for it before voting against it. In both cases, Cruz voted to subvert the protections of the constitution in order to advance an agenda that he claims to be against.
i guess the poll that showed kasich within 3 in pa was an outlier
Polling is pretty iffy this cycle. It’s hard to say.
I’ll bet there’s a lot of cross over voting in WI for Trump. It would be a slap at Scott Walker. The democrat loons in WI will love that.
I don’t know why Kay-SICK thinks he’s going to do well in PA simply because he was born there.
The Kay-SICK got crushed in the counties bordering Western PA.
Some of the NYC burbs are in NE PA. Philly should mimic NYC as far as Trump support goes.
Most all these polls out of Wisconsin showing Cruz with a big lead over Trump are of republican voters and not reflecting crossover support for Trump from blue collar union democrats and independents.
I also see most media/pundit types fail to mention that Wisconsin has an open primary where democrats and independents can vote in the GOP presidential primary. If you factor in Trumps crossover voter support, the race is essentially tied with Cruz having maybe a narrow one or two point lead. It will depend on voter turnout Tuesday night and whether Trump’s crossover support will be enough to overcome Cruz’s lead among registered republicans.
When Kasich drops out, Trump is in trouble. Cruz will win delegates in both states.
Time for Trump to suspend his campaign and endorse Ted Cruz.
