Ted Cruz has won Utah's Republican presidential caucus to score a key victory in his bid to close the gap on front runner Donald Trump.
Cruz is on pace to take all of the state's delegates by finishing with more than 50 percent of the vote.

Trump got 59% of the delegates a weak day for Trump.
Cruz is done.
Utah is a conservative state. Most there voted for the most conservative candidate, Cruz. Second place went to the less conservative candidate, Kasich. Last place went to the NY liberal.
Not a surprise.
Nobody believes Cruz won this legitimately.
First hand insider reports at the Utah Caucus indicate Incompetence, Manipulation, and Ballot Stuffing ruled the day.
I'm confused as to how this closed the gap. If Ted won 40 for the day and Trump won 58 for the day...didn't Trump's lead increase by 18?
Also, If Ted needed to win ~85% of remaining delegates, and every time he doesn't get 85%, doesn't the percent go up for the next primary? For instance, from here on out, would he not have to win 86%...and so forth. Is this logic wrong?
Lame.
In the picture of ted, ted is being himself.
In the picture of Trump, Trump is mocking someone else.
I guess this sort of thing impressed Utah voters.

Sometimes I wish FR had a Like Button because you got it exactly right. How does the following Headline sound? Cruz wins by falling even further behind!

Because all those Mormons were just dying to voter for the NY liberal Trump. His personality and lifestyle just hits all the right notes with Mormons and they all rushed out to vote for him, but the heavy hand of fraud cheated them of their choice. Cheated Trump all the way down to a distant third place behind Kasich. All the polls showed Trump winning, but it was cheating that took him down to 14 percent.
LOL! You’re comedy gold. Never change!!
Orrin Hatch impresses Utah voters.
Let me know when you find a clip of Cruz mocking a disabled man.
You are correct. Trump is making fun of some reporter's neurological disability. Apparently that's funny.
Maybe Trump was mocking retarTED.
I guess this sort of thing impressed Utah voters.
You are so dang right.
All those conservative Mormons wanted to vote for Trump......just like all those southern conservative evangelicals voted for Trump.
The very same Southern conservative evangelicals that true-blue conservative loser Cruz spent a bundle courting for votes.
