Americans Overwhelmingly Engaged in 2016 Election (Trump Hillary even)
Media Relations ^ | 4/25/2016 | John Shevrin

In a head-to-head matchup of each party’s frontrunner, Mrs. Clinton leads Mr. Trump by only 3 percentage points nationally (46 to 43; 11 percent undecided). Comparatively, Mr. Sanders fares slightly better against Mr. Trump (51/40/10).

“The Republican Party has a strongly favorable political environment for winning the White House,” said pollster Ed Goeas, president and CEO of The Tarrance Group. “If a mainstream Republican candidate were the presumptive nominee, the GOP would likely be in a strong position for a lot of wins, top to bottom, in November. “

Could be Trump is already trending after the New York win and the 5 sates Trump will win tomorrow. This alliance between Cruz/Kasich may also so infuriate voters that Trump will win Indiana and the rest of the states.

That’s unpossible. Cruz losers told me Trump cannot defeat that old bag of crap.

I agree.

Also, the headline clearly should've been "REPUBLICANS Overwhelmingly Engaged..."

There goes another Cruz fanboy canard...

These "hypothetical matchup" polls are pure propaganda, though.

Having said that, it's perfectly obvious that Donald Trump can defeat Hillary Clinton in November.

Vote Trump

The harsh political reality is that Trump is the only credible candidate who can defeat Hillary Clinton. If the Republican Party does not take control of the executive branch, the Federal regulatory agencies and the Federal judiciary, the US will be irrevocably harmed, impoverished and transformed with the Democratic commissars remaining in power. A Trump Presidency would not be ideal but it is the only rational political option decent people have at this time. A Clinton Presidency would be a cultural and economic catastrophe.

(46 to 43; 11 percent undecided)

What this tells me is that 11% are undecided about Trump. I mean, if you have not already broken toward Hillary now, you never will be. If Trump can convince about half of them, he will win. The rest of the undecideds will just sit it out.

We will see how this shakes out after Tuesday. If Trump continues the surge Trump wins Indiana and may well win all the remaining states.

Frankly, I think any Republican, willing to reject the insane canards of "political correctness," could defeat Hillary. But Donald Trump offers the added benefit of drawing many millions of new voters to the Republican cause--if they will stop fighting him. Trump, by adding celebrity status, and a fearless mien, has an already formidable drawing power, that no one else can match at this moment in history.

Let's rally all that we can to demonstrate the inevitability the next two weeks, and hopefully the anti-Trump Republicans will accept the inevitable.

I predict Donald Trump will sweep California and all of our 172 delegates.

California has 53 congressional districts. The winner only needs to win a congressional district by 50% plus one vote to take the 3 delegates for each district.

It is that formidable drawing power. He has attracted huge numbers of independents, Democrats and dormant Republicans. Their allegiance and motivation to vote is not easily transferable to another candidate. Its a cliche to state that this is a cross roads, critical election for the US but it really is. Elections are determined by those who actually vote and their numbers. A “silent majority” will be swept away if it remains dormant. Trump unlike the other Republicans has motivated people.

Also if Shillary is the dim nominee, many Sanders supporters will no doubt either sit it out or cross over to vote for Trump.
