Not to burst any bubbles, but if this was the general election, Trump would lose.

There are more democratic votes than republican votes.

I love Trump, but he is going to have to have some crossover votes in November to win.

California is somewhat odd on Closed and Modified Primary votes.

From what I can tell, Independents were able to vote in the Democrat Primary, however were not allowed in the Republican Primary.

Qualified political parties in California may hold presidential primaries in one of two ways:

Closed presidential primary - only voters indicating a preference for a party may vote for that party's presidential nominee.

Modified-closed presidential primary - the party also allows voters who did not state a party preference to vote for that party's presidential nominee.

If a qualified political party chooses to hold a modified-closed presidential primary, the party must notify the California Secretary of State no later than the 135th day before Election Day.

The Democratic and American Independent parties notified the Secretary of State that they will allow voters who did not state a political party preference to vote the presidential ballot of their parties in the upcoming June 7, 2016, Presidential Primary Election.


I believe todays numbers are not reflective of a general election matchup because Independents were excluded from the Republican Primary. If there are any California Freepers, please clarify.

If Independents were excluded, then California may very well be in play.

If there are any California Freepers, please clarify. Thanks.
