44 percent of those polled considered themselves very conservative,

Boy are a whole lot of Cruz people going to be surprised tomorrow when they discover 44% of Texas GOP voters are not "very Conservative." Easy to get the result you want when almost half the sample is made up of the 1 demographic group your candidate does well in.

This has been TOTALLY DISCREDITED, given Fox’s ‘polling’ for SC and Nevada - where they ‘predicted’ toss-ups, when Trump had BLOWOUTS.

CNN now has MORE CREDIBILITY when it comes to polling.

Donald will get a nice little chunk of the delegates though. And win most of the rest if not all. Ted should stay in though and Marco too. Let them cancel each other out.

CNN, has it as a dead heat, I’d trust it over Fox at this point.

We’ll have a scoreboard tomorrow. Ted will be screaming, celebrating, and spiking the ball if,,,,, he manages to win his home state, against a New Yorker.

Sad

Either way, it should be a close number of delegates for each. Cruz is finished.

This is just one poll. The other polling out today shows a much closer race. We won’t know until tomorrow but I wouldn’t bet much on one poll. It’s clear Ted Cruz is in decline.

The made sure almost half the sample was the 1 demographic Cruz does well in. Push poll designed to suppress the Trump turn out.

Too bad 75% of us already voted (early), including me.

This is also two days old and no reflective of the sudden shift that more recent polls have. That being said I believe Ted will still prevail in Texas which will give him some solace as he will be done after March 15.
