Ted Cruz will deal Donald Trump an emphatic defeat in Wisconsin next week.
That’s according to The POLITICO Caucus – a panel of activists, strategists and operatives in 10 key battleground states. Nearly nine-in-10 Republicans in those states chose Cruz as the likely winner of next Tuesday’s Wisconsin presidential primary.
Among Democrats, Caucus members by a nearly two-to-one margin predicted Bernie Sanders would defeat Hillary Clinton.
In the Republican race, insiders said Cruz has surged ahead of Trump in Wisconsin thanks to GOP Gov. Scott Walker’s endorsement and an electorate that isn’t as favorable to Trump as those in other states.
“Governor Walker's endorsement will help Cruz,” said one Wisconsin Republican, who, like all respondents, completed the survey this week anonymously. “And Trump's bit just does not play with the southeast Wisconsin GOP base.”
“The drumbeat of doubts about Trump is finally catching up to him, and Ted Cruz will be the beneficiary,” added an Iowa Republican. “Plus, Cruz is working the grassroots hard, knowing those campaign volunteers will turn into Cleveland delegates.”[continued]

Oh wow the Insiders tell us again and again and again...
Cruz’s new buddies the insiders, aka the establishment.
That’s it. Trump has peaked. He’s through now.
Wow you must be fappin’ like there’s no tomorrow LOL...
The numbers say that Cruz probably has about a 4 point lead right now. The last 48 hour assaults on Trump have had the undecided break for Cruz, thereby making the polling seem correct.
I expect Cruz to win barring a major event on any side that launches a different candidate.
That’s the level of discourse I expect from a Trumpet. Thanks for living up to my expectations.
Didn’t even have to look at the poster, just the title to figure out it was you. Guess you’re on 2nd shift today. You started at 6:00 am.

This is like Cruz going all-out to win Iowa. He won it. Then what happened?
After Wisconsin you got New York on April 19, and northeastern primaries (DE, MD, CT, etc.) on April 26.
Cruz thinks he's going to be the nominee by winning Wisconsin and nothing else in the entire month of April?
I’m no political expert but I have some questions. Is there early voting in WI? If so,how long has that gone on.
Secondly, I keep seeing polls of Republicans but it’s an open convention. Why isn’t that being factored in?
Would appreciate some input.
Did you know the last Republican to win Wisconsin was Ronald Reagan. Even their home boy Paul Ryan couldn’t get a win for Romney/Ryan 2012.
I sleep when the pain subsides.
Of course. Anonymous.
“After Wisconsin you got New York on April 19, and northeastern primaries (DE, MD, CT, etc.) on April 26.”
I’ll finally get to vote. Looks like my vote will actually count his time unlike the last two primaries. And it won’t be for Ted.
Yes, there is early/absentee voting in Wisconsin. I voted yesterday. It opened the 21st. I live in a small town and there were 5 others there at the same time. We only have 3 booths. lol
