Ted Cruz has sprinted to a 10-point lead over Republican front-runner Donald Trump in the critical, winner-take-all-the-delegates primary state of Wisconsin for the 2016 GOP nomination.

Fox News reports the Texas Senator now bags 42 percent of the vote to Trump's 32 percent and 19 percent for Ohio Governor John Kasich.

The new poll represents the second straight survey where Cruz has lead Trump by at least 10 points. A recent Marquette Law School poll showed Cruz leading Trump 40 percent to 30 percent, with Kasich at 21 percent.

Wisconsin Viewed as one of the Most Important Primaries

Wisconsin is widely viewed as a state critical to a growing Republican establishment movement aimed at stopping Trump from amassing the 1,237 delegates he needs to win the party's nomination outright ahead of July's GOP convention.

After the April 5, Wisconsin primary, the voting heads east, a region seen as being far more amendable to the outspoken Trump. New York holds its primary on April 19, followed by Pennsylvania, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Delaware.

Meanwhile, a recent Quinnipiac University national poll also finds Trump and Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton lapping the field in their quests to secure the Republican and Democratic nominations.

The poll finds Trump leading Cruz by 14 points at 43 percent to 29 percent, with Kasich stuck at just 16 percent.

Clinton Leading Sanders in National Survey

On the Democratic side, Clinton leads liberal-minded Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders 50 percent to 38 percent.

Still, hope springs eternal for both Sanders and Kasich, both of whom top all other candidates by safe margins in hypothetical general election match-ups while being locked in a dead heat against one another.

Clinton tops Trump 46 percent to 40 percent and Cruz 45 percent to 42 percent. She trials Kasich by a 47 percent to 39 percent margin. On the other hand, Sanders tops Trump 52 percent to 38 percent and Cruz 50 percent to 39 percent. He trials Kasich by just 45 to 44 percent.

In addition, Trump and Clinton top the "no way" list of more voters than any other candidates, with 54 percent of voters insisting they would never vote for Trump and 43 percent responding likewise about Clinton.
