Jabin Botsford—The Washington Post/Getty Images by [Sarah Begley](https://time.com/author/sarah-begley/) ## Sarah Begley Apr 18, 2016 10:33 PM UTC More than half of registered voters said they [could not see themselves supporting ](http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/unpopularity-contest-poll-shows-grim-outlook-2016-winner-n557821)Donald Trump, Ted Cruz or Hillary Clinton in a new poll. The [NBC News/_Wall Street Journal_ poll](http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/i/MSNBC/Sections/A%5FPolitics/16229%20NBCWSJ%20April%20Poll.pdf) found that Donald Trump elicited the most responses from registered voters saying they “could not see” themselves supporting him, with 68% agreeing. Some 61% said the same about Cruz, 58% about Clinton, and just under 50% for both Bernie Sanders and John Kasich. Still, should their party’s current front runner become the nominee, 73% of Democrats said they would be satisfied with Clinton as their candidate, compared with 63% of Republicans who said they would be satisfied with Trump. “The Republicans have a party problem, and the Democrats have a candidate problem,” explained Democratic pollster Peter Hart, who worked on the poll. His Republican colleague commented, “As primaries go deeper, the opposition \[becomes\] more negative.” The poll was conducted among 1,000 registered voters from April 10 to 14 and has an overall margin of error of +/- 3.1%. \[[NBC News](http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/unpopularity-contest-poll-shows-grim-outlook-2016-winner-n557821)\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4298501/donald-trump-ted-cruz-hillary-clinton-unpopular-poll/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4298501/donald-trump-ted-cruz-hillary-clinton-unpopular-poll/"},"headline":"Majority of Voters 'Could Not See' Supporting Donald Trump, Ted Cruz or Hillary Clinton","datePublished":"2016-04-18T22:33:54.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-19T07:42:00.220Z","description":"Sanders and Kasich don't perform much better","url":"https://time.com/4298501/donald-trump-ted-cruz-hillary-clinton-unpopular-poll/","keywords":["2016 Election","2016 Election"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt23f1e443f69b6bee/69888f970a4a228cfc9c94b2/empty-seats-trump.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Sarah Begley","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/sarah-begley/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt23f1e443f69b6bee/69888f970a4a228cfc9c94b2/empty-seats-trump.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"ALBANY, NY - APRIL 11: Signs are seen in empty seats before republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during a campaign event at the Times Union Center in Albany, NY on Monday April 11, 2016.
