A new Field Poll released Tuesday shows that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and businessman Donald Trump lead among Republican primary voters in California by a wide margin, with Cruz at 25% and Trump at 23%, a statistical tie.
Declaring delegates “is really [a way] to say you have supporters in the state,” said Reed Phillips, the political director for the Alabama GOP. It shows “you have people in Alabama that are saying, ‘I like Ben Carson or I like Ted Cruz, I want to say I’m a supporter of this candidate, I want to represent the people of Alabama [by] saying I want this candidate to be our nominee,’” he tells Breitbart News.
