EMERSON POLL: WISCONSIN PRIMARY IN PLAY FOR BOTH PARTIES; CRUZ LEADS TRUMP BY A POINT; CLINTON UP 6 OVER SANDERS; CRUZ FARES BETTER THAN TRUMP IN GENERAL AGAINST CLINTON.
Hey.. I am not the one that created those numbers.. and Emerson College has probably been the most accurate pollster this primary season.. Guess we will see.
How are delegates allocated?
Cruz should win this...if he does that will really help out. This is an open primary too! If he pulls off this win I think it’s going to be a contested convention and then Cruz should easily win.
It does come as a surprise to most everyone that Cruz set out to buy friendships in the establishment.
He and the establishment sure have done a fantastic job of dis-information to fool all of us with that charade of Cruz having no friends and being hated by everyone.
In reality, I suspect the truth is in the middle. Cruz has bought no friends. But at the same time he doesn’t have as many enemies as his few enemies claim.
He has a lot of envious but gutless admirers.
yep .. yer right
Cruz will easily overcome that with his ground game and the govenors endorsement & backing in the state. Now if Walker backs Trump then it will be a very close race because he can get out the vote for Trump. We’ll see.

Winner Take Most - 42 delegates
Cruz will never win a general election, he can’t win FL, OH or VA.
He is a nut, but apparently his fasting is working. At least in Wisconsin.
42
Go, Ted, go! The conservatives’ choice!
The Establishment GOP choice!
So..
No Endorsements = Friendless
Endorsements = Establishment
Which one is it?
Poor Trump.. falling behind in the number of endorsements...

Please, Trump can’t even win Utah.
I guess Trump bought the wrong ones...his were mostly on the Democrat side of the aisle.
Cruz may have not bought any friends.
But Cruz is bought and paid for. By the establishment and that’s where his loyalties will be.
Cruz = Obama when it comes to character.... both are sleaze bags.... Never thought I’d ever say that. But yeah - Cruz = asshat!
I’m sure Wisconsin is an open primary, so did Emerson poll independents & Ds?
Depends on the DONOR$$$$. Get it?
Trump will have a battle in Wisconsin. Madison is a leftists paradise and is known for having the student body vote not only in the WI elections but also in their own town elections (double dipping).
Madison is also quite organized when it comes to getting out the vote, but I imagine they will be too busy voting Bernie to worry about spoiling the R primary.
There are a lot of empty factories in Wisconsin, paper mills and the like, that were once blue collar havens. Even Milwaukee was once a premier blue collar town that has been devastated by unemployment, and is now partly gentrified.
These voters could and should turn out for Trump, but the rural areas will probably go Cruz, and there is a lot of rural votes in Wisconsin.
Any R would have a hard time winning a general in Wisconsin, but I’d say the primary could be up for grabs.
Bernie should win the state for the D side. Tons of socialists up there, but also a ton of vote fraud out of Milwaukee so who knows.
