Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton hold double-digit leads in the April 26 primary contest of Pennsylvania, according to results from a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll.
In the Republican race, Trump gets support from 45 percent of likely Republican primary voters in the state — followed by Ted Cruz at 27 percent and John Kasich at 24 percent.
Trump performs the best among those who strongly support a candidate (getting support from 57 percent from that group), men (52 percent), those without a college degree (52 percent) and those in the Northeast part of the state (52 percent).
He performs the worst among college graduates (37 percent), women (39 percent), white evangelicals (40 percent — but still leading Cruz's 36 percent) and in the Philadelphia suburbs (38 percent — leading Kasich's 34 percent).

Do you have a link to Sundance.
My search stuff only shows the left wing Sundance.
Thanks
I'm not defending in any way whatsoever what Cruz is doing but it's not going to amount to a hill of beans and Cruz is basically showing himself to be a petty person who puts his own personal ambition ahead of what is good for party and nation.
Agree totally on post 22. Well said.
What worries me is that Cruz and his establishment friends are playing more than just a 2nd ballot game. If he can steal it, it will happen in the credentials committee.
If Trump rolls into the convention right near 1237, look for them to try to disqualify just enough delegates to force a second ballot.
Huge wins this Tuesday, along with Indiana, then a California sweep would put this to bed.
I'm not mocking anybody. I'm merely acknowledging reality, which, incidentally, is what Trump appears to have been doing this past week. Kowtowing to the "moderates." It worked so well with Dole, McCain and Romney. Ah, but unlike those three, Trump has the conservatives tucked neatly in his pocket, so in his case it really doesn't matter.
I hope Big Mo gets him over 50%.
I’d like to be on your Ping list.
Will do
No, it isn’t rigged. If a campaign lets people know which delegates to vote for or if the voters are informed, there’s no issue. This has been the Pennsylvania system for decades.
The Cruz losers don’t care much for actual voters. I guess there is 30+ states full of horrible people in tbeir corrupted minds.
However Trump has been rolling up some impressive victories in battleground states that are key to the GOP's success in November. Florida, Virginia, North Carolina, Michigan, Nevada, NY and as of Tuesday, Pennsylvania. Throw in New Jersey and California which I expect Trump to also do very well in later on.
The only battleground states that Trump did not win was Wisconsin and Ohio. As well as Cruz did in Wisconsin, it's very doubtful he'd be able to beat Clinton there in November. Same in Ohio (which Cruz finished third in).
The entire Deep South went for Trump. With the exception of caucus Maine, the entire Northeast looks to be solid Trump. So east of the Mississippi, Cruz is very, very weak and that should give the GOP and credentials committee pause with regard to tampering with the rules to keep Trump from a first ballot victory.
They are coming to the realization that they are better off with Trump and I believe they will in the end make their peace with Trump and give him their full support for the general election.
I’m voting in PA on tuesday, and I’m hoping Trump exceeds the poll estimates here. They said 100,000 democratics changed their party to Republican this year in PA and set a record by far.
Stop digging. You sound like an drooling moron. Cruz is losing almost everywhere. Acceptance will help you not look so petty and stupid.
As far as I understand, Evangelical is a broad term for born again Christian. But again, that means many things to many people. I guess for political purposes it means “very religious” as in how pwoplw would describe themselves.
To your other point, I’m in Morris County, NJ and Trump will win this state in a landslide, 60+ percentage. Hillary will probably take NJ this Fall, but Trump will make it competitive all the same.
Why are Pennsylvania republicans bad people and your state of republicans good?
With regard to New Jersey, you know better than I, but I consider that a winnable state by Trump due to the fact that Chris Christie has been a popular governor there and has endorsed Trump. However, I know the Newark area is going to be probably 90% for Shrillary and difficult to overcome.
And when the morning comes, and the sweet light of love is still glowing in your eyes, he'll call you a slut, pull up his pants, and leave you to pick up the pieces as best you can.
They're not bad people at all. Why would you suppose I think that? The bulk of them (Republicans) are on the left-hand side of moderate. That doesn't make you a bad person. To a conservative it might make you a misguided person, but that's the extent of it.
OK, except for Wisconsin, I'll give Cruz Wisconsin.
