PPP's new New York poll finds Donald Trump heading for a dominant victory in his home state, where he gets 51% to 25% for John Kasich and 20% for Ted Cruz.
There had been some thought Cruz might have momentum after his big win in Wisconsin last week, but New Yorkers hate him. Even among Republicans just 35% see him favorably to 50% with an unfavorable opinion. Kasich has a narrowly positive favorability at 41/38, but the only candidate GOP voters in the state really like is Trump at 65/29.

"Cruz really not popular in New York even with GOP voters- 35/50 favorability. Kasich at 41/38, Trump at 65/29"
"Another thing to Trump's advantage in NY- 80% of his voters are solidly committed, to 56% for Cruz, 48% for Kasich."
You can tell a lot about a person by his friends. I’ll just say that much.
Especially the friends that person has among those who know him best. NY and FL know Trump best.....impressive results. TX knows Cruz best....he couldn't even get a majority in the primary there.
Hate - a NY Value
Cruz hates New York—the double talk about he oonly hates Liberals—will not cut much mustary in the Big Apple. they know Trump and he has done a lot for the state over the years.
That is fine, NYC is not popular with anywhere else.
Most pollsters keeping Trump around 50% so they can justify if he doesn’t get over 50%. Have seen this too many times.
BS. There is a lot of heart in NY.
Trump favorable 65/29 you say.
The media will ask why does he have 29% unfavorable? That is the question to focus on! With 29% unfavorable he is finished even if he gets all 95 delegates.
Cruz probably wishes that he had said, “New York City values,” instead of simply, “New York values”.
Rural New York state is, for the most part, Conservative.
New York is solidly blue for the general election no matter who the candidates are. Donald Trump is hated in his home state, with a 30/65 favorability rating.
this is personally distressing.
I’m a TExan. I voted for Trump. I love NY, but I love Texas more. I’ve honestly never had a bad experience in NYC. I love the place.
I’m also more conservative than Trump, and though I didn’t vote for Cruz, I don’t hate him.
I wish we could all get along a little better....sigh.
The latest news out of New York: Liberals do not approve of Conservatives.
In other news, this morning the sun came up, a dog bit a mailman, water was found to be wet, and Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
Same here. I love TEXAS, and I love NY, and I love California, and I love North Carolina, and I love Montana, and I love Colorado, and I love Florida.... and about five other states as well.
So many beautiful places and great people everywhere we go!
I voted for Trump, I love patriots and I hate the globalist Country Club Uniparty.
NY YOU BUNCH OF AHOLES! First you vote that pig in a human suit to congress and she isn’t even a NYker. Then you do this after her rapist creep of a husband releases 16 puerto rican terrorists do win over the latino vote. that’s how much they think of latinos and her husband was the scumbag that let the terrorists take down the towers.
So you want to vote for it, then go F&*%$ yourselves.
An ex NYKER.
well said
Hmmm....apparently the Trump supporters figure this is one of the “good” polls. I don’t see the usual complaining about waiting for the “real poll” on election day.
I also don’t see any Cruz people whining about how the poll is b.s. and that Cruz will really run much stronger in NY. Odd that, no?
All that said, the good news in the poll for Cruz is that Trump is under 50% in the rural districts and that Cruz is running better than Kasich in those same districts. Cruz will get one delegate and Trump two delegates in every district where they come in Trump/Cruz, provided Trump is held below 50% in the district.
This is also true in districts that come out Trump/Kasich. Kasich being in the race will definitely be helping Cruz by keeping Trump under 50% in many districts, thereby holding him to two delegates in those districts (some of which will end up with Cruz, besides.)
