Oooook. And Q Poll out today has Trump with a 2-1 lead and Reuters and Morning Consult. As the Cruz people so often remind us, when is the national election?

Not possible, Cruz is born in Canada. Plus Trump is smarter.

The big liberal media will do anything to drive Trump out of the primary race. One of their favorite ploys has been pushing Cruz. This “poll” is absolute nonsense.

Polls have become more and more erratic as the populace had become less and less tied to land line phone.

We Have WSJ/NBC saying Cruz
and Bloomberg saying djt

we will only KNOW when we the people actually vote.

What is a “primary voter”? I don’t recall other polls using that term. Likely, registered etc but not “primary”.
