A vote for anyone but Cruz is now a vote for Trump.
Cruz got 12 per cent and spent the least amount of money per vote
Oh really? Trump hasn’t spent much and he got 3 times the vote Cruz did. Trump paid the least, stop lying.
And its not over yet still lots of votes to be counted this morning. Its a 3 way tie 3 candidates separated by less than 1% and that could change the lead we don’t know. Plus someone might ask for a recount.
84% precincts reporting
Ted Cruz 30,071 votes (-62,154) 11.6%
Jeb Bush 28,617 votes (-63,608) 11.0%
Marco Rubio 27,764 votes (-64,461) 10.7%
A statistical tie. Note Trump had more votes than all 3 men combined now that is a Big Big Win
Trump yesterday was ahead in SC by 16% this should push that over to over 20%. This is the establishments last stand, because NV. is going to go for Trump.
Frankly, if Donald Trump really wanted to make America great again, he’d drop out and throw his support to Ted Cruz.
yep, just a question of who plays Establishement spoiler Kaisch, Bush or Rubio.
Such bias in all media today. Cruz is the story because NH wasn’t fertile ground and he didn’t put all that much into it.
Then why wasn’t Trump the real story in Iowa, much truer for him there.
Or if you don’t want Trump, you’ll have to turn to Cruz.
What if you don’t want Cruz, do you then have to turn to Trump?
Media still controlling our votes, just coming at us from different sides.
If true, bad news for Cruz. Indy’s will make the call and he’s got problems there.
Go play somewhere else.
Trump Cruz, Cruz Trump, me I like it!
Right, Trump has more then twice the support that cruz does, but cruz still gets equal billing? No, this is just cruz still trying to ride Trumps coattails, it is not going to work any more. After SC, cruz will be in Jeb territory.
Not so fast my friend.
Kasich has no money. Bush spends $3000 per vote. The powers that be might ground them. Then add Christie getting out.
Rubio becomes THE establishment guy with 30-40% of the vote.
They get Trump and Cruz to kill each other.
Rube moves up the ladder.
This has never been about the country in Donald’s mind. This is about Donald having power directly instead of buying it through Democrat politicians.
Trump does not have the knowledge or the judgment to lead this country.
All things in due time!
No I think I heard a breakdown of the money spent this morning on FOX (if you can believe FOX anymore:-) that Cruz actually spent the least per vote.
Together, I think the two contain the plurality of voters not rabid Democrat. I do hope they come to a meeting of minds and concentrate on completely squashing Jeb Bush’s chances any farther than he’s at today.
Cruz spent the least per vote. Trump was second, but spent almost twice as much per vote as Cruz. Both were well under the amount spent by other candidates and way, way, way below the $1500/vote spent by Jeb.
It is a one-man race with four guys vying for 2nd through 5th place.
One winner. Trump!
In NH Cruz paid 18 per vote, Trump 40 per vote.
Kasich+Christie+Bush+Fiorina+Rubio = The Nomination
Christie is already out. Kasich will be out soon despite making it respectable. Fiorina is out effectively already.
If you have a cage match between Rubio and Bush, I think Bush comes out ahead.
What you actually have here is a path to the nomination for Bush. It could be Bush versus Clinton once a-freaking-gain.
I hope people take this to heart and vote for Cruz
