New York Primaries: Make or Break



On Tuesday April 19, the much anticipated New York primaries will finally occur. Every news media  outlet are focusing on polls, pundits making predictions, and candidates getting heated over hot topics. But it's also a make or break primary state, as candidates on each party are fighting for delegates that they desperately need.

Three candidates are embracing their New York love, as Bernie Sanders who was born and raised in Brooklyn, or Donald Trump who grew up in Manhattan, and Hillary Clinton trying to appeal to voters as her "adopted home."

Sanders needs this win, as he's spending $7 million on the state primary compared to Hillary's $3.7 million. The latest poll conducted today (Sunday) has Clinton leading by 10 points to Bernie, and Trump leading by a remarkable 33 points to Ted Cruz and John Kasich.

It's no secret this delegate heavy state can make or break Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz. Although there are many primaries to go, this primary can show the momentum that Sanders is building and if Cruz can even make it a close race to Trump (probably not). Let's see on Tuesday who truly embraced the "New York values" with a win.
