Every poll that comes out of New York puts Trump way ahead of the pack, by an average of 33 points. So let’s get that out of the way.
But in this new poll by Emerson, Cruz has improved his standing to 22%, 5 points over Kasich:

But here’s the kicker. Cruz has improved 10 points from the last time Emerson did this poll:

Excellent!
Note that this poll was taken in the last 3 days, so maybe this really is a sign that Cruz’s support is growing. And with another 10 days to go or so before New York votes, I think Cruz can improve his numbers even more.
