The survey was conducted Monday through Wednesday, at the same time Trump was coming under scrutiny for multiple women's issues. On Wednesday, he said that women who get abortions should face some sort of punishment -- a stance his GOP primary opponents disagree with. On Tuesday, Trump defended his campaign manager after he was charged with battery for grabbing a female reporter. Additionally, throughout the campaign season, the Republican candidate has come under fire for his history of sexist remarks.

Cruz also has a significant advantage (61 percent to Trump's 25 percent) among voters who describe themselves as "very conservative." White evangelicals also back Cruz over Trump, 49 percent to 28 percent.
