Donald Trump’s momentum is unlikely to be derailed in the big-state Republican presidential primaries on Tuesday – except in Ohio, where home-state Gov. John Kasich is favored to win.
And in Florida, insiders in both parties see Tuesday as the likely denouement of Sen. Marco Rubio’s presidential campaign.
That’s according to The POLITICO Caucus — a panel of activists, strategists and operatives in three of the five states headed to the polls on Tuesday: Ohio, North Carolina and Florida.
On the Democratic side, insiders give Hillary Clinton the edge in all five states voting on Tuesday — but they caution that Bernie Sanders is a very close second in a handful of states.
The Republican insiders’ predictions for Tuesday mostly mirror the public polling: Trump is a heavy favorite in winner-take-all Florida, while nearly all insiders picked Kasich to pocket all of Ohio’s 66 delegates.
