Trump, Clinton hold double-digit leads in New York
Dylan Stableford Senior editor April 12, 2016

One week ahead of the New York presidential primary, Republican and Democratic frontrunners Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton each hold double-digit leads in the Empire State, three new polls show.

According to the results of a NY1/Baruch College poll released Monday, Trump has a commanding 43-point lead in his home state, with 60 percent support among likely GOP primary voters compared to just 17 percent for Ohio Gov. John Kasich and 14 percent for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.

A new NBC/WSJ/Marist survey also released Monday shows the real estate mogul leading Kasich by 33 points (54 percent to 21 percent) and Cruz (18 percent) by 36. A Monmouth University poll released last week had Trump (52 percent) holding a 27-point lead over Kasich (25 percent) and a 35-point lead over Cruz.

I dunno...just a guess. I can see why they would prefer him over Cruz esp after the NY values comment.

I still think Bernie will do better in NY. Now I get the Wall Street preference for Hillary but Bernie should win the north and western parts of the state devastated by job losses.
