LAS VEGAS, Nevada -- 500,000 votes have already been cast in Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)'s home state of Texas, and one million will be cast by Friday, giving Cruz a decisive edge over Donald Trump, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick told Breitbart News Tuesday night.
Patrick told Breitbart News that early voting favors Cruz, because Trump has not had as much time campaigning in Texas.
"This race is getting down to two people. Rubio doesn't have a pathway to victory," Patrick added, noting that one million early votes would represents 60 percent of the total in Texas.
...
Candidates must win at least 20 per cent of the votes in Texas to be awarded any delegates, Patrick explained, suggesting that Trump and Cruz would likely be the only candidates receiving delegates in Texas on March 1, "Super Tuesday," next week. He told reporters that if Rubio does break 20 per cent, he would still only win a couple of delegates.
Patrick emphasized that Texas alone has more delegates than Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada put together, allowing Cruz to make up a significant portion of the current gap with Trump...

Godwins Gets GGG Gone 4 Good?
Cruz has been predicting victory ever since Iowa only to be soundly defeated in every subsequent state. “ >>>
I heard he stole IOWA to even pull out a win, there.
They militantly want to politely lose to the Dims again ...they are far more comfortable with the permanent minority status quo ...they are what are more commonly known as Cuckservatives
one of the best I’ve seen posted here so far!
that’s great!
Thanks Iceman, that made my night!
(when I’m in bed tonight, I’ll chuckle to myself as I think of that and my wife will ask me “what’s so funny?”)
Cruz is the one candidate who has defeated the RINO trump.
That’s why trumpsters hate Cruz and ignore everyone else running.
Cruz is the best alternative to an awful candidate that is trump.
I will bet you most were for Trump!!! The excitement to vote for him is nation wide I think Trump is going to take Texas just a feeling I have!!!
So he didn’t steal IOWA to win there?
I hope Babs is keeping an eye on Jeb... I wouldn’t want him going on some type of cocaine fueled rampage.
Her stupid Hilter post was Zotted. If we are lucky she will be Gone Gone Gone too.
Crooze is a lost cause. Even if he “wins” in Texas Trump will win the Nom so it doesnt matter. CRUZ CANT WIN.
Delusions of the highest order. Iowa evangelicals, I call them the raptures, represents Cruz's popularity. This nation needs a president that does not have his bags packed ready to lift off, before the really bad stuff begins to happen. This nation needs a leader planted here for the long term.
Paper or electronic. Trump sure was on page one, first column of my paper ballot.
Super Tuesday will put Cruz to rest for GOOD. I’m sure the FR Croozers will just go right on ranting and telling us Trump is a fascist, etc etc etc etc etc....ad infintum!
laughing my ass off!

Those are some mighty bold predictions. We’ll see if they hold up, come Tuesday.
