Ted Cruz is the only candidate who can beat Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

Trump himself admitted that Sanders likely will not win the Democratic nomination – and said that he would prefer to go up against Clinton. Democrats are choosing between Clinton and Bernie Sanders, while Republicans are deciding among Trump, Ted Cruz and John Kasich. Now what he meant is because her judgement is so bad, so said Bernie Sanders, not me.
White House presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders acknowledged Thursday that he has “a hard path” to the Democratic nomination and that it could be difficult to overtake Hillary Clinton by convincing the party’s superdelegates to switch allegiances. California would be a huge win for the candidate and Sanders is opening up a campaign office there, according to The Los Angeles Daily News, in an effort to make up for his loss in NY. Trump said that he fully expects Clinton’s surrogates to “be very tough with me, I’ve read they’re doing all kinds of opposition research”.
There is no denying Mr. Trump achieved frontrunner status with the voting public early in the 2016 election cycle and his NY victory puts him another step closer toward continuing these two historic GOP streaks. “You shouldn’t be able to do it”, Mr Trump said when asked about the rule. “I am going to keep fighting for every vote, for every delegate, because each is a statement of support for the values we share”.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus told a gathering in Florida on Friday that the party was prepared for numerous scenarios, including a contested convention in July if no Republican has earned the 1,237 delegates needed to secure the nomination for the November 8 presidential election.
In a tighter race than the statewide primary, Clinton won Orange County with 51.5 percent of the vote, with Sanders receiving 48.5 percent.
“He’s competed much more favorably in Philadelphia, in the Philadelphia suburbs and up in the Lehigh Valley among Republicans who are conservative, moderate voters, not hard-line conservative”, he says. Aggregates of polling in the three larger states on the RealClearPolitics website show Clinton substantially leading Sanders.

The former secretary of state leads Sanders by four points in Indiana. The Ohio governor can also brag that he won Manhattan, narrowly, with 45 percent to Trump’s 42 percent, all Cruz was far behind with 13 percent.
