Buffalo, NY -- Donald Trump's campaign has moved a rally planned for Sunday to Monday after several groups said they planned to protest at the event.

The Buffalo News reported this morning that the Republican presidential candidate's rally planned for the First Niagara Center has been moved to next Monday night. It is now slated for the eve of the state presidential primary.

The News reported Sunday that several groups protesting the candidate planned to march through the city to the First Niagara Center. Others planned to occupy public spaces, or shut down public roads and some had sought to snatch up tickets to make the arena look empty.

The Trump campaign has announced a Syracuse rally on Saturday. The time and place has not yet been announced.

A new Fox News poll released Sunday shows Trump with the support of 54 percent of likely Republican New York voters. His opponents Ohio Gov. John R. Kasich had 22 percent, while 15 percent supported Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
