All eyes are on New York, which is the next state which goes to the polls in the Republican Primaries on April 19. There are currently only 3 candidates left out of 17 who were originally competing for the nomination, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and John Kasich.
New York is Trump`s home state and he is expected to do extremely well here, which is fortuitous for him given that a total of 95 delegates will be awarded in the state.
The current RealClearPolitics average shows the following percentages
Donald Trump 53.5%
John Kasich 21%
Ted Cruz 18.8%
If this results were to hold true in every single congressional district then Trump would obtain almost all of the delegates in the state of New York and receive a timely boost in his quest to reach the 1,237 delegates he requires.
Following Trump`s hefty defeat in Wisconsin to Texas Senator Ted Cruz there has been a certain amount of debate swirling around as to whether or not Trump is losing momentum, a resounding victory in New York would once again serve to dispell this notion and galvantize his supporters.
