Republican Donald Trump holds a big lead in California, in a new Fox News Poll, while Hillary Clinton has a razor-thin edge over Bernie Sanders in the Democratic race.
Trump captures 49 percent of likely Republican primary voters. Thats more than the combined support for his two remaining competitors: Ted Cruz receives 22 percent and John Kasich 20 percent.
The mogul leads his rivals by a wide margin among every demographic group, including those he sometimes has trouble capturing: women, young voters, college graduates, and very conservatives.

You are engaging in unjustified assumptions that are so typical of Cruz supporters on here.
Please, read my post (that JimRob re-posted as it’s own thread) about Trump’s history of conservatism and try to open your mind in an unbiased fashion about him:

[A FReeper discussion on the history of Trumps conservative pro-America positions]
Welcome to FR! Your comment is succinct and telling of the frustration we’ve all been dealing with for what, 30 years? All the best to you and yours.
BTW, if you haven’t already been informed, if you put the mouse arrow over one’s screen name, you can see when they joined FR.
I’m not going to do it! Your’re the one drowning in Kool Aid and if he should get the nomination through some un-godly act, we will all hear a crescendo of howls and laments so voluminous that a second book of Lamentations will have to be added to the new testament in the Bible!!!
Your post reads like a comically parody. Please, take a deep breath and try to think rationally. You seem to be bragging that you are determined to remain closed minded and to ignore facts that don’t match your preconceived notions. OK, thanks for clearing that up. I hope that you see reason eventually.
There are two core issues for us in the election: sovereignty and jobs. Sub-categories of those are military strength, border security, security within the nation, trade, illegal aliens, manufacturing, business regulations, and education.
There are more, but these are it. The globalists have trillions and trillions of dollars betting on taking us down. They’re within sight, too.
We are alone. The question is whether we still have the will to fight. 0bama was supposed to destroy that.
I have maintained all along that Trump will have to win 50% in some election in order to win the Republican nomination.
If he gets 50% of the primary votes, he is going to get to 1237, no matter what.
If he can string together a series of 50%+ wins in a bunch of primary states, particularly as the process moves into the final months, he will get to 1237.
If he can’t get to 1237 through the primary process, then he would have to get to 1237 at the convention. This has always been the most problematic of the three for Trump, since he is such a party outsider. It is my opinion that if Trump is not at 1237 on the first ballot, he will not get there on any subsequent ballot.
So for Trump to win the nomination, he has to start stringing together a series of 50%+ victories in the primaries. Since New York, he has been doing just that. If this trend continues, he will go into Cleveland with 1237 delegates, he will be the Republican nominee, and I will support him.
Trump was not my first choice. But if he is the choice of the Republican Party, then he is my guy.
Of course, I would vote for a dead dog in the street before I cast a vote for Hillary Clinton.
