NJ-Rutgers/Eagleton: Clinton ties Kasich, but beats Trump/Cruz by double digits

We don't get many polls of New Jersey, so we get to fill in some empty spaces on the maps.

This poll is kind of dated now, but they just released it last week, and it looks like no one else posted it.  Rutgers/Eagleton poll of NJ, conducted April 1-8:

Clinton 50%
Trump 36%

Clinton 50%
Cruz 35%

Clinton 43%
Kasich 43%

Sanders 55%
Trump 34%

BEAUTIFUL POLL!!!  Lol @ Clinton.  Can't even best a Generic (R) in Jersey.

Polls for John Kasich reflect how a moderate "Generic R" would do against Hillary Clinton, who promises largely to continue Obama policies, in a climate of political fatigue with the current President after seven years. John Kasich simply hasn't said the extreme or offensive stuff that Trump and Cruz have done.

Kasich is not generic R, lol. He polls far better than generic R because he's gained a reputation as a maverick and a moderate.

What?!  NJ Pubbies are boring old farts that live in Ocean County.  They don't like mavericks makin' a ruckus.  Even worse news for Hillary. 

NJ = slight Kasich.

Hillary Clinton vs. John Kasich

30% -- lead with 40-49% but a margin of 3% or less
40% -- lead with 40-49% but a margin of 4% or more
60% -- lead with 50-54%
70% -- lead with 55-59%
90% -- lead with 60% or more

White -- tie or  someone leading with less than 40%.

With New Jersey, Clinton and Kasich tie. Less of the map is filled in, but enough to suggest that Kasich, based upon current polling, would win about 40 states.
