The comment section is interesting with lots of good information.

Cruz may not be legally a Senator, much less a Pres. candidate.

Canada did not recognize dual citizenship in 1970 when Cruz was born in Alberta.

The only way Cruz could have been a US citizen was if his mother had filed a document called a Consular Report of Birth Abroad.
Cruz has never admitted to having that document.
This is the legal equivalent of a US Birth Certificate and Cruz either has one from the time of his birth or he does not.
If he does not then he is not a US Citizen as he was never naturalized by his own admission
and at birth the nation in which he was born did not recognize dual nationality.

With 2 Canadian parents, and being born in Canada in 1970 when Canada did not recognize dual citizen citizenship, he was born Canadian and is not a natural born citizen.

In order to run for US Senate, you have to be a US citizen for 9 years.
Cruz ran for US Senate in 2012.
In 2014, he renounced his Canadian citizenship.thus admitting he WAS a Canadian citizen when he was born.

UPDATE:
I have edited to reflect that his father was a citizen of Cuba until 1973, when he became a Canadian citizen ( and later an American citizen in 2005) and his mother's available voting record was from 1974 BUT the Canadian process for being on the voting registration requires a person to affirm they ARE citizens of Canada, which is then checked by the Voting Registrar.
