A new poll released Wednesday, March 9, 2016 shows Donald Trump leading two Republican presidential opponents in each of their respective home states.
The new CNN/ORC poll shows Trump ahead of Sen. Marco Rubio in Florida and Gov. John Kasich in Ohio.
In Ohio, Trump is at 41% to Kasich’s 35% and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in a distant third.
In Florida, Trump holds 40% to Rubio’s 24% with Cruz 19% and Kasich 5%.

Yeah, but think of what a foreign policy wonk Senator Cruz would be, having served as a Canadian Citizen from birth until May, 2014...can’t beat that, can you? You can? Who knew?
(I would prefer Dr. Carson)
Along with his "gang of 8" role, the thing I detest the most about Rubio is his attitude of entitlement, which in many ways is even worse than Jeb's. He doesn't even show up to the Senate half the time, and has actually said things to the effect "the Senate bores me" and "I'm destined for bigger things." Being the GOP establishment's golden boy has gotten to Rubio's head, so he doesn't have enough respect for the people of Florida to even make a pretense of representing them. He deserves to lose badly and to have his political career sunk.
Sorry, don’t know what happened.
That was meant for the thread where polls show Trump losing to Hillary
I saw an interview on this..There is a difference between contested and brokered conventions.
He is against a brokered convention.
YAY!...GO TRUMP!
It should be obvious to those from Ohio that Kasich doesn’t stand a chance. Will people still vote for him just to announce they like him?
All contested conventions become brokered if the delegates can't agree on a majority following the first round, so they're effectively the same thing.
I am a Cruz supporter and I will vote for Trump if he is nominated...I certainly prefer him over Clinton or Bernie!!
LOL You made my morning. What Passion! Trump Shirt is in the mail. Hope it arrives today.
Breaking up the GOP? Lololol
It’s already broke, dude.
I am tired and taking the day off.....
....but for the next 5 days will push towards Florida Primary Tuesday.....Winner takes all!
....with sign waving.......poll watching......robocalling......and the official Grand Opening of our Trump Headquarters, with hot dogs and fun for all : )
Technically, it would be an ‘open’ convention. There are no longer ‘brokers’ that control delegates. Delegates are governed by state party rules these days, none of which seem to bind delegates to a dictatorial leader.
If Cruz can only get in the 20s and 30s in most of the South he is useless. You really think Southerner were voting for Kasich to mess him up? Cruz BS just didn’t truck with most Southern voters. So magically he would win in NY, NJ, IL,OH, FL?
Oh so he wins the anti Trump? Lololol what a weak position.
Cruz out of blind ambition has thrown in with the Bushies, who are no conservatives and won’t reform squat they helped make this mess.
If Cruz gets VP or Prez in a brokered convention he will spend his whole term paying back favors and mired in scandal.
Bless you , dear Guenni!! I wish I could join you, there, for all of the fun.
“All the polls still agree—with Trump you get Hillary.”
______
Not true. There were at least two yesterday that show just the opposite and there have been many others where Trump beats Hillary.
I would be nice if people stopped spreading rumors. THINK. He beats ALL GOP contenders!! THINK

With the future winner take all states, assuming its a two-way race, means Trump has to win 50.1% on 60% of remaining states-on average. He can lose 4 out of 10 states (on average) and still win.
That’s great, I haven’t heard of that story before. It takes a pretty good negotiator to cut a deal with a guy wielding a baseball bat!
Rubio and Kasich are dead men walking. Their campaigns are nothing less than kamikaze missions aimed at the clear front-runner Mr. Trump, and/or Sen. Cruz who still has a legitimate shot at winning the GOP nomination.
Rubio, Kasich, and their donor-class supporters are pathetic vermin.
I heard that too!
