PING!
Looks like this is going to be a great night for Trump as far as delegate counts.
At this juncture - I would recommend that Rubio and Cruz drop out of the race.
Watching analysis on Fox right now it is only about Cruz and Rubio zero acknowledgement of Trump, except how to stop him.
Why do we bother to have dedicated Live Threads in Breaking News?
An update on Kentucky.
Trump is up 6000 votes but there are no results yet from the 3 large counties, Jefferson (Louisville), Fayette (Lexington) or Kenton (Covington).
CNN JUST CALLED TRUMP WINNER OF LOUISIANA!!!!!!!
Looks like Louisanna has been called for Trump.
If Trump wins Kentucky, then there is a good chance that Trump expanded the Delegate count even though he split the States with Cruz.
Another interesting point. Wherever there is a Caucus vs a ballot vote, then Trump does not seem to win even though the polls AND the exit polls all show Trunp winning. I hope the Trump Campagin unleashes investigators to see if there is any cheating
Go Trump !
FYI to all — video stream for the upcoming news conference :
lost by TWENTY FIVE in Kansas?
and lost Maine too?
wow
Only 42% of votes are in now and Trump at 38; Cruz at 32.
btt
Kentucky has one liberal enclave: Louisville.
And Trump is winning because of Louisville.
Any questions?
Tonight is about like I figured
Cruz beat expectations to win better than I figured he’d win in Kansas
Cruz did about like I figured in another Caucus state Maine
Trump wins a caucus state handily in Kentucky
Trump wins Louisiana better than I figured
Nebraska I don’t know a damn thing about
FOX and GOP party types will declare Trump is losing even though he increased his margin a hair tonight
The real funny part is now Cruz is the white night for the donor class till all their hopes are dashed the next two weeks where we get clobbered with big states and winner take all where polls show in primaries not caucus voters and Trump is way out front
Michigan is just two days and a wake up
Trump plus 17-25 points and open primary
Then Florida in 6 nights and a wake up
Trump 20 points up and winner take all
Cue Dandy Don
Close finish. Once again Cruz way over performed. And trump inly gets 1 extra delegate over Cruz.
Looks like Cruz has a way to get the nomination.
