New York is solid blue. New York Values.
New York bans their guns, wants to ban your guns too. |

Or...
With 90% reporting, Trump almost quadrupled Cruz's votes. Hillary could only manage 35% more D votes than Bernie. |

Neither Trump nor Cruz can carry NY. |

On the bright side, there are lots and lots of D voters voting for Trump instead of Shrillery.
Works for me. Hell, I'd vote for my neighbor's yappy little dog if I thought it'd keep Shrillery Clingon out of office. |

I can't quite write this off as the R's just staying home in this case; with these numbers, it looks like NYS will still be blue in the general unless Trump can handle Hillary the way he handled Jeb in the general. New York is never going Republican ever again in a general election. There are currently 235 electoral votes which Democrat candidates can rely on getting. |

2-1 Commie in the vote, but at the same time, 90% of what they call a Republican in New yawk, is considered just to the left of Che' in the midwest and south.

There are about 2.5 million republicans in New York state, only republicans can vote in the republican primary in New York state. To vote in the Primary as a party affiliate, you must have been registered to the party for atleast 1 year prior to the Primary election date.

We'll see what happens in the general.
But the fact of the matter is that Trump pulled in FOUR TIMES as many primary votes as did Romney in 2012. The man gets turnout. You know, when there is actual voting to be done. |

You should just keep a copy of that post in notepad to trot out for when Cruz loses another 5 states less than one week from now. And Trump is not likely to secure 1237. At a contested convention, Trump's best shot is to offer the VP slot to Kasich and hope Kasich's delegates push him over the top. A good number of Trump's delegates are actually Cruz supporters, and Rubio (bless his heart -puke) has said Cruz is the only conservative left in the race. So if Trump can't clinch it outright, where do you see his path to the nomination? |

There are no Conservatives in the Northeast, just liberals that like their money....like Trump. The exit polls indicate that conservatives are vastly outnumbered just among Republicans in NY. And that's going by the loose criteria of "identifying" as a conservative. Every indication pointed that way, and that's why I never thought Cruz had a chance there, nor any other conservative (like Walker or Paul, if they had made it this far, although back when they were around I wasn't sure it would still matter at this point). Best case for Cruz was to get a handful of delegates. The most liberal States back east will definitely go for people like Trump or Kasich. It's just natural when the average Republican over there would be a Democrat almost anywhere else. Things won't start looking up again for Cruz until the race starts shifting back west. |
