When it comes to the question of Texas Senator Ted Cruz's eligibility to be president, Cruz has some extra attention and nothing to fear from millennials, according to recent polls.
Cruz's citizenship has been a hot topic ever since Donald Trump has started targeting the Texas senator.
Ted Cruz was born in Canada and was a Canadian citizen until 15 months ago. Lawsuits have just been filed with more to follow. I told you so

But Trump's attacks may have backfired. 58% of those polled by YouGov (https://today.yougov.com/news/2016/01/11/poll-results-cruz-birth/), said they still believe that Cruz is eligible to be president, despite being born in Canada, according to the poll.

Millennials polled 56% saying he is eligible to be president, but 26% said they were not sure.
However, in the same poll, when asked if they thought President Barack Obama was born in the United States, Millennials voted overwhelmingly yes, according to the poll.

Trump's attacks seem to have especially backfired with Millennials, 68% said they just thought Trump was trying to attack Cruz.

Since Trump began his attacks, Cruz's citizenship has been incredibly popular on Google. The phrase "Ted Cruz citizenship" has an index number of 100 on Google Trends, which means that of the number of things googled, this phrase is 10% of the searches, according to the Google Trends Support (https://support.google.com/trends/answer/4355164?hl=en&rd=1) page.
Just the phrase "Ted Cruz" itself is very popular on Google, most significantly in Iowa and New Hampshire.
Trump, despite his attacks, is a less popular search topic than Cruz in these key states.
This doesn't determine who will end up winning these primaries, but it does say who the people are more interested in and the polls indicate, especially among millennials, all this attention may not be a bad thing. -- This feed and its contents are the property of The Huffington Post, and use is subject to our terms.
