I’ve noticed Cruz polls poorly in weekend polls. What gives?
The polls were broken. Now they have been fixed.
“Logan Dobson points out that “independents that lean Republican” aren’t the same as “registered Republicans”, and that CNN’s article mixes the two.”
Crossover voting is allowed in some Republican primaries, so there is some merit in including them.
I've noticed that the more liberal the source, the better Jeb does and the worse Ted does... It can't be that they're biasing their polling...nah...'course not...

My guess is that the make up of responders is different,
working versus retired/non working.
Look at the mix that CNN uses. Does this really reflect the likely voting public?

BASED ON 283 REGISTERED VOTERS WHO DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS REPUBLICANS AND 183 WHO DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS INDEPENDENTS WHO LEAN REPUBLICAN, FOR A TOTAL OF 466 REPUBLICANS -- SAMPLING ERROR: +/- 4.5 PERCENTAGE PTS.

Lots of Dems in this mix for sure. Cruz, Fiorina and Kasich tied at 5% and Paul beating them all at 6%. Does that make any sense at all? I don't think so.
Rubio polling is all over the place. I still can't figure that out.
Almost everyone except Trump is within the margin of error of each other.
He’s been around 5% pretty consistently. Maybe after Huck and LA Raza drop out...
I’m very concerned that Cruz cannot poll above Walker for God’s sake. I don’t get it. I would like to see him and Trump top two but I don’t think its going to happen.
