TED CRUZ LIES AGAIN Says Kasich May Not Be on Ballot in New York. A ‘Disturbing Pattern’ of ‘Untruthfulness’
Kasich
spokesman Rob Nichols told Breitbart News exclusively on Tuesday night after
reports surfaced that Cruz falsely said Kasich wouldn’t be on the ballot in the
Empire State:
Look, we
all saw what Ted Cruz’s people did to Dr. Carson in Iowa. And we also saw what
they tried to say about us in Illinois suggesting we wouldn’t be on the
Illinois ballot when we were in fact on the Illinois ballot. And now we’re
seeing him and his people say that we’re not going to be on the ballot in New
York when I am currently looking at a picture of the ballot in New York with
John Kasich’s name on it. This is a disturbing pattern, we think this race
should be above that and our campaign will never drop to this level of
untruthfulness.
Nichols’
comments come in response to a report from The Daily Caller’s Kerry Picket that
Cruz reportedly told a closed-door meeting of New York Republicans in Manhattan
on Tuesday that Kasich may not make the ballot in the state.
“Attendee at Ted Cruz event
said Cruz told them Kasich may not make NY ballot,” Picket Tweeted with a link
to her article, which has since been updated to reflect that that it is untrue
to say that Kasich won’t make the ballot in New York.

Sam Nunberg—a New York Republican who previously advised Donald Trump’s campaign and is now unaffiliated but attended the Cruz meeting in Manhattan—told Breitbart News that Cruz didn’t say what Picket reported he said, or at least not in that context.Nunberg said in a brief phone interview on Tuesday:
“It came in the context of that by New York it should be a two-man race,” Nunberg added.

I attended the meeting. Sen. Cruz said that by the time the primary reaches New York, Kasich will have been out of the race because he is going to lose Arizona, he is going to lose Utah, and he is going to lose Wisconsin. He will have no rationale to be in the race and therefore should not be in the primary any longer. He never said in that room that Kasich was not on the ballot. Perhaps they should worry about winning another state besides Ohio.
