PPP's new West Virginia poll finds it's likely to just keep Donald Trump's recent streak of dominant victories right on going. Trump leads in the state with 61% to 22% for Ted Cruz and 14% for John Kasich. Trump, with a 67/24 favorability rating, is the only candidate GOP voters in the state even like. Both Kasich (32/50) and Cruz (32/53) come in with negative favorability ratings.
Adding Carly Fiorina to the ticket has done little to help Cruz. Only 12% of voters say picking her as his running mate makes them more likely to vote for Cruz, compared to 31% who say it makes them less likely to vote for Cruz and 54% who say they just don't care one way or another. Fiorina's 40/32 favorability rating with Republican primary voters does at least make her more popular than Cruz himself.
Trump is winning every subgroup of the Republican electorate, but a few things stand out. He's getting 70% among the independents planning to vote in the GOP primary, to 20% for Cruz and just 9% for Kasich. Trump also has by far and away the most committed support- 87% of his voters say they will definitely cast their ballots for him next Tuesday, compared to only 67% of Cruz's voters and 45% of Kasich's voters who say the same about their candidates. The race is tighter among 'very conservative' voters, with Trump getting 51% to Cruz's 38% but among both moderates and 'somewhat conservative' voters, Trump's advantage is up over 50 points.

Cruz is finished.
It’s over for Cruz.
Trump 70% among WV Independents.
If he can do that nationally Hillary is destroyed.
Who is this Carly Fiorina of which they speak?
Any polls on NE (36), MT (27), or SD (29)?
Just curious, because I have Trump clinching even when getting zero from each of these states.
I think Cruz will surprise us tonight and suspend.
Can anyone explain why Cruz gets by with dismissing the photo of his father with Oswald in a word— “ridiculous”. I mean, he didn’t even bother to suggest it was a photo shop, did he?
If Trump wins big in Indiana today, Cruz’s numbers in WV and everywhere else will drop into the teens or less, only his hardcore of supporters will bother to show up and continue voting for him.
It’s been over for Cruz for weeks. He needs to get out so we can concentrate on defeating witch Hillary.
No, he didn’t.
Amen.
I am going Libertarian...
I'd love to see polls for those, too. Analysts have been assuming those states are all in the Cruz column because of how he has performed in neighboring states. But the neighboring states were mainly holding caucuses while these 3 are all primaries where Trump has generally done better. I really think that if Trump wins tonight, as expected, these other states will become more competitive.
I did not hear of this. Only that he said Cruz's Dad was handing out leaflets with Oswald.
61% pfft. If Trump was a real canidate he’d get 80! Trump must quit the race if he doesn’t get 80%!
/s
You will end up getting what you purist always get.
Nothing.
Enjoy.
I read somewhere a few days ago, that he had a decent chance of winning Nebraska. It had more to do with momentum than anything else.
>HOWEVER, after Trump accused Rafael of conspiracy to kill Kennedy, I can not bring myself to ever vote for TRUMP. I believe he is mentally unstable.
Show us the video. Sounds like more BS from Lyin’ Ted.
“HOWEVER, after Trump accused Rafael of conspiracy to kill Kennedy”.
Another lie, go watch the actual tape on Trump’s response to the question.
