I guess this sort of thing didn't impress Utah voters.

Maybe. Maybe not. If he was, then it was great because that reporter was a liar and a goon. He moved next door to Palin so he could ostensibly snoop on her family while at the same time intimidate her.

That ahole reporter should be savaged, but we all knowbthe Cruznadians love him long time.

Once every state has voted then we’ll know who gets the most delegates.
Glad to see the candidates battle it out state by state.

Cruz is expert at winning when being dismissed.
Trump is learning he can’t just show up and inherit a position.

I am not saying that Cruz is winning this election. He isn’t. And I’m not saying that Cruz struck it big with So. evangelicals. He didn’t. What I am saying is that the notion that Cruz won UT only through cheating is ridiculous nonsense. Trump was never going to win UT. It’s a special electorate that isn’t suited for DT.

TRUMP BALLOT SECURITY PROJECT
Committee to Restore America’s Greatness PAC
FR Posted 3/19/16 by Albion Wilde

The Trump Ballot Security Project (TBSP) was formed when the main stream media reported dozens of voting irregularities in the Texas Republican primary. This ultimately totaled over 600 reports in at least six counties including Dallas County and Travis County. In virtually every case votes cast for Donald J. Trump were tallied for Senator Marco Rubio.

(NOTE:Even though @realDonaldTrump won delegates in Texas the @TedCruz- @georgepbush #RickPerry cabal is refusing to slate Trump supporters.)

The TBSP established a Toll Free number to collect further reports of voter irregularities.

Almost immediately there were over 300 complaints from Oklahoma. Only a week later the Kansas and Maine Caucuses brought hundreds of more complaints including claims of double voting by supporters of Sen. Ted Cruz.

Now we are focused on Arizona, Utah, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and California. To the extent possible, we are attempting to place trained poll watchers in those counties with a recent history of voter fraud.

The Trump Ballot Security Project is committed to investigating all complaints of voter fraud. In the event a pattern can be determined, the seating of these delegations can and will be challenged before the Credentials committee of the Republican National Convention.

We have dispatched lawyers and election law experts to all of the states mentioned above to investigate and document voter fraud. NOTE The Trump campaign is not currently devoting resources to this important function.

TBSP is a project of the Committee To Restore America's Greatness
CONTACT 1-855-245-4634 TO REPORT IRREGULARITIES OR VOTER FRAUD.

"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?"

Ted uses Common Core math...

No matter how many times you or anyone says it, it does not make it true that he was mocking a particular person. He was mocking the press in general in how they have to contort themselves as a group to say one thing and then say another when they get caught not on script.

Speaking of Cruz cheating....I give you....Iowa.

The place where Cruz made cheating a household word amid the Carson fiasco.

The fact is where Trump finished is not relevant since Cruz got his 50%.

Enjoy Cruz's last win.

You are asking a Cruz troll to realize that the universe outside of a state that Cruz wins, contradicts the piss-poor rant/narrative they are trying to push here?

You have to realize that the only true conservative state is the one Ted wins./s

speaking of Cruz cheating how about Maine. He ran an ad there showing how Trump kicked an old lady out of her house and then had it bulldozed for a limo lot.

Except it didn’t happen; she won in court and the house was never bulldozed. When they have to absolutely, positively have to win there, just lie.

Lyin’ Ted.

“Cruz is expert at winning when being dismissed.”

You mean like his surprise wins in Florida, Michigan, Mississippi, Virginia, Ohio, Georgia...

Expert? Please.

“Trump is learning he can’t just show up and inherit a position.”

Oh I cannot wait for Cruz to drop out so that these people will spare us this display of stupidity. Frankly Cruz and his band of airheads seem to be the ones that believe in someone just showing up and feeling entitled to votes.
