Trump leads Cruz among Republicans who don’t have a college education, 45 percent to 38 percent; and among men, 42 percent to 35 percent. Asked by a Staten Island undecided voter if Cruz wanted to rephrase his statement after spending the past few days in New York, Cruz said that wasn’t his term.

All five remaining presidential candidates continued to push for votes on Monday, with Mr Trump and Mr Sanders organising large, eve-of-vote rallies, the Vermont senator in NY city and the reality television host in the upstate town of Buffalo.
He did not correct himself and is yet to address the awkward blunder, but Twitter was all over it in a NY minute.
Both the NY primaries are closed primaries – meaning to vote in the Democrat primary you must be registered as a Democrat, and to vote in the Republican primary you must be registered as a Republican.
According to the poll, 62 percent of Republican primary voters say that the victor of the Republican nomination should be the candidate who received the most votes in the primary, while 33 percent say the nominee should be the candidate whom the delegates at the convention believe would be the best party standard-bearer. The delegates were awarded based on state party rules that were established long before the primary. “And if you want to be president, you are going to have to deal with things far more complicated than republican delegate rules”, he said. The meeting on Capitol Hill is to include about a dozen US lawmakers, some of whom have endorsed Trump and some of whom are interested in his message, congressional aides said. Ted Cruz, has capitalized on.
Henry Barbour, RNC committeeman from MS, said he sees little support for “a change three months before what would be the first open convention in 40 years”.
Well, let’s just say Gov. Sununu is not so sure that Trump will be able to win over enough of the unbound delegates to win the nomination. If he is unable to win enough delegates to seal the nomination fight, he will have to face his opponents in GOP convention. “You know Cruz is way down in the polls, Kasich is not even showing up”.

But in several interviews on Sunday, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus again denied that the delegate selection rules are rigged against Trump.
