Poll: Clinton, Trump lead in Maryland (Trump 41; Kasich 31; Cruz 22)
The Washington Post ^ | April 7, 2016 | Fenit Nirappil

Posted on 04/07/2016 5:44:37 AM PDT by Trump20162020

Hillary Clinton has a clear but narrowing lead over Bernie Sanders three weeks before Maryland’s Democratic primary contest, according to a new Washington Post-University of Maryland poll.

The poll also finds good news for Donald Trump, who has a slight edge among likely Republican voters with Ohio Gov. John Kasich in second place.

On the Republican side, Trump has a slight edge among likely voters, garnering 41 percent of their support compared with Kasich’s 31 percent and 22 percent for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas). While the 10-point margin bodes well for Trump, it is not statistically significant given the survey’s sample size of 283 likely Republican voters.

It's actually code because he/she does not want their real name disclosed.

Real name: Tinef Lipparin

Cruz is in Third

New York, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, and Virginia

Gezz he has not inspired anyone but stop Trump. Anyone post a HUGE Rally at a Cruz Rally.

This could be the 1964 Democratic Landslide of Governors, State Legislatures, House Races and Senate and President Hillary.

The Wisconsin Mafia will be gone soon.

In Maryland Lying Teddy will get 0. Zero.

It’s a WTA state.

But keep up the lying, it’s what Cruz and his followers do. And you’re particularly good at it.

The Cruz team is well-organized here. Kasich has the support of the Pubbie leadership, both the state party and the elected officials. Trump has the support of the people. We’ll see how the next 11 days turn out.

Ignore him. He’s just a troll who’s upset he backed the losing guy.

Yep. Kasich was polling around 23% in Wisconsin. He finished with 14%.

Vicious circle here.

The highest lead Trump ever had in WI was 10 points months ago.

If there was one state where Trump was vulnerable on the Tuesday, April 26 Northeast Super Tuesday primaries, it was Maryland.

There are a lot of establishment-types in the areas around the district. This is a very good result for Trump.

A larger sample would give Trump a larger lead. Much larger.

I stand corrected. Donald Trump is ahead in the polls in NY. 12 days is an eternity, I am sure he will work hard to get below 50%.

In his home state? Doubtful. Trump will romp here and take somewhere between 80-90 of the 95 delegates. Cruz is really a non-factor here, polling third behind KAY-SICK and not even getting to the 20% threshold to get delegates if Trump falls below 50% statewide.

As the poll goes you probably need a little more of a sample than 283, even the writer of the article said that. Of course Trump had a 15 point lead in Wisconsin and over a month or so lost it.
***************************************

It also has a MOE of 7.5, it’s a junk poll.
I don’t how anyone can put out a poll with a MOE that high. It’s a complete waste of time.

Maryland is similar to Wisconsin. WTA with the plurality winner of the state (14 delegates) and WTA by CD (8 districts with 3 delegates per district, 24 total).

Realistically, the statewide winner will get somewhere between 29-35 of the 38 delegates there.

Trump had his first NY Rally last night. I’m sure there will be more and some policy speeches. I believe Trump will finish with more than 50% in NY and win all 95 delegates. Ted will be run out of town on a rail.

Anti Trumpers who cant stand Lyin Ted Cruz. He’s had every opportunity to seal the deal as the standard bearer of the anti Trump but he can’t because he’s such an awful candidate.

Yep. And Senator Green Eggs & Ham isn’t going to do well in any state with the beltway in it.

Looks like a clean sweep for Trump on the 26th.
