If the polls are right, Donald Trump could claim victory at least 10 more times in the coming two weeks. The New York Post reports that the real estate mogul is currently leading in the polls of 10 of the next 14 states to vote, including Nevada, Alabama, Alaska, Georgia, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Virginia, Oklahoma, Minnesota, and Louisiana. While some of his leads are as narrow as 6 points in Minnesota, some of his winning margins are as wide as 35 points in Massachusetts.
The four upcoming states that Trump does not lead in are Texas, Arkansas, Colorado, and Kentucky. But even without those states, Trump is still poised to be way ahead in the delegate count over his fellow Republican presidential contenders. Trump currently leads with 67 delegates — 56 ahead of second-place Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and 57 ahead of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.).
