New York businessman Donald Trump won Republican primaries Tuesday from the Deep South to New England, but Texas Sen. Ted Cruz took his home state and Oklahoma, ensuring that the race for the GOP nomination will stretch into the spring...

Does anyone on FR know? What is final TX delegate split?
We need to get the two establishment toadies OUT - Kasich and Rubio threaten everything if they can stick around until the RINO-GROpe establishment’s brokered convention hopes rise from the muck.
and what criteria is on the “toady list”?
takes campaign money?
pretend fights in DC?
held lower office?
job currently held?
how many USSC did cruz win?
how many senate fights did he win?
Those polls will change... Cruz has won 4 states... and is now the only real anti Trump candidate.
And now that ST is behind us Cruz will be able to focus more time energy and resources to campaigning in Kentucky...with Matt Nevin and LS with Robertson.
Nominees win based on delegate count. Though Trump is ahead, it’s not inevitable that he wins:

Texas March 1 155 20 57 0 0 0
Total = 155
Trump = 20
Cruz = 57
Others = 0
57+20+0=155
That is even hard to justify using common core math.
Can you link to polls for the states you are saying Cruz will win?
Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Idaho, Mississippi
If not what is your basis of that projection?
Thanks

thanks
Oops, I’m a day late and buck short ;)
Trump wins Eastern states, but Cruz barely registers there....Cruz CAN NOT WIN anything but his small base of saturated voters like Texas. Voting for the Cubans gives us Hillary.
Vt....Trump 33%....Ted not even in the top 3
VA...Trump 33%.......Ted 17%
Mass...Trump 49%........Ted....Not in the top 3
Not at all.
It is the great state of Texas that is slow giving a full accounting of those 155.
Ain’t that the truth, lol
It simply blows my mind that his supporters still see a path with results like that.
If it was Trump pulling in those results, they would be screaming for him to give it up!
Most of those states are caucus states. (Sorry liberals)
Major advantage for Cruz.
For those who want to talk about polling...show me a legit poll done after ST.
Indeed, the delegate numbers are still too close to declare.
