With half the vote in Dewhurst is not that far from 50% (46) but it looks like it’s going to a runoff with Cruz. The third place Leppert will probably back Dewhurst but conservative heavy hitters can help Cruz beat Dewhurst 1 on 1.
Michael Williams unfortunately finished way down the pack in his House primary. Roger Williams finished first, lots of candidates vying for second place.
Most of Travis County (where Michael W. is running second to Roger W.) is still out, and Michael Williams is not that far from the guy in second place (second through sixth place are fairly tightly bunched), so I’m not giving up hope yet. But, you’re right, Michael Williams’s odds of making the runoff don’t look very good right now.
