Free Beacon Poll: Cruz Expands Lead Over Trump in Wisconsin

The Basswood Research survey of 500 likely Republican primary voters, conducted on March 19 and 20, shows the Texas senator leading Trump by 4.8 points, 36.2 to 31.4. Ohio Gov. John Kasich trails with 20.8.

Cruz’s lead expands dramatically in a head-to-head contest with Trump. If Kasich were to drop out before the primary, 47.8 percent of respondents say they would back Cruz, compared to just 36.2 percent for Trump.

She worked for Cruz beforehand or were you not smart enough to read that?

ye[p Trump must have hit his wall again and is going down LOL. Wow one would think after all this time from SC that the crap and lies put out would be met with laughter, but it seems some dopes still want to cling to false beliefs, how sad.

Don’t get too excited. Breaking news all night online. 3 of the 5 alleged women have been identified and it may become a criminal matter involving half a mil in hush money. Time will tell. Two of the women have already denied. One in the NE article so touted for its groundbreaking revelation that there's Internet rumors Cruz had an affair. One to Gateway Pundit.

This and one of the other polls has Cruz moving suddenly 5 or 10 points total compared to a week ago. I don’t believe it. There is no way this isn’t another push poll.

Not that any polls made before Cruz’ bimbo eruption will matter three days from now.

[fortheDeclaration]

Agreed!

[Flick Lives]

Going to have to explain the 500k donation to an opponent. Can’t wait to hear it.

Does hush money fall under "overhead" or "misc expenses"?

[House Atreides]

Please have your messiah do some more tweets—I’d like to see the polling tip another 5 points in Cruz’ direction. That would give us a little room for any polling errors.

[nathanbedford]

Amen

The FEC is interested in that transaction, too. They’ve sent a formal inquiry to Cruz’s super PAC. Conservative Treehouse has a picture of the letter.

[dforest]

Two of the woman have been confirmed. This is just the beginning. There will be more to come yet.

[jersey117]

What kinds of ads is the sleezeball running there?

[exit82]

What would the QuickBooks number be for that account?

[Pinkbell]

If the National Enquirer is right like they were with Edwards and Hart, the poll numbers will change dramatically. If they are wrong, it might help Cruz.

Katrina Pierson worked for Cruz’s Senate election campaign.

Do you actually live in Texas?

[rineaux]

On another thread you were thanking a FReeper for not name calling.

Thought you may send them flowers.

Yet you bash Trump supporters and call them names.

Got it.

Change your tagline-Lose with Cruz.

[BlueStateRightist]

Correct. Trump has the emotional maturity of a teenager. He digs his grave with every ridiculous tweet. The polls are convincing in their showing most of the country cannot stand him, and he will be trounced by Hillary. When 70+% of women can’t stand you you have no chance.

[toddausauras]

Trump can lose WI (and PA and others) and still get to 1237 as long as he gets CA.
