Cruz: Trump’s Supporters Will End Up Voting For Me

Still, if Trump did get the nomination and faced Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, the contest for the White House would be a bloodbath, experts said.

Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump still leads the GOP field in the three key swing states of Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, however, Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton managed to narrowly beat Trump in hypothetical matchups in each state, according to a trio of Quinnipiac University polls. The manager said Trump is an attention grabber who angers too many people and couldn’t get much done in Washington if he were elected president.

According to the results, Trump is still the leading candidate in Florida with 28 percent of support among voters. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, and potential opponent, Vice President Joseph Biden, but the vice president is gaining, while she is losing support.

Carson, who was at 5 percent in May, jumped to 15 percent, while Fiorina, who lost the 2010 California Senate race to Democratic Sen.

Trump’s candidacy remains strong, as seven in 10 Republican primary voters say they would support him if he became the party’s candidate and 35% saying that they could see Trump winning in November 2016.

The fact that the California election is at the end of the primary cycle means that what happens before then will have a huge impact on the vote, he said.

She gets 41 percent to 43 percent for Fiorina and trails Rubio 41-45 percent.

Trump is one of a couple of Republican candidates with no political history, but whether this will prove an overall advantage for his campaign is still undetermined. And in Pennsylvania, that split is 61-34 percent. None made a breakthrough.Marco Rubio had a few moments but he lost me with the campaign speech about his grandfather.

Conservative, blue-collar, working-class Montanans are lining up behind Trump, said Hutchings, of Townsend. Fiorina followed with 8 percent and Cruz with 6 percent.

The poll surveyed more than 1,000 registered voters in each Pennsylvania, Ohio and Florida via telephone from September 25 to October 5. Data collection was conducted on behalf of CBS News by SSRS of Media, PA. Phone numbers were dialed from samples of both standard land-line and cell phones.

While Trump’s unfavorable rating is more than twice that of either Rubio or Fiorina, many don’t have an opinion of the latter two candidates. It has sampling errors of plus or minus 2.9 percentage points for Florida and Ohio respondents and plus or minus 3 percentage points for Pennsylvania respondents.
