After canceling a Friday rally in Chicago due to potential violence, Donald Trump lost out on two major primary contests on Saturday, giving a much-needed boost to his competitors Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.
On Saturday, Rubio - who is currently in third place in the GOP race - was declared the winner of the Washington D.C. caucus, nabbing the district's 10 delegates all for himself. Meanwhile, Cruz won nine on Wyoming's 11 delegates, with Trump and Rubio each earning one delegate each. The state's 14 other delegates will be elected at the April 16 state convention.
While Trump is still clearly the frontrunner with 460 delegates, Cruz is quickly catching up with a total of 369 delegates. Rubio, meanwhile, follows with 163 while John Kasich has nabbed 63. The Republican candidates need 1,237 total delegates to win the nomination....

grasping at straws I see
The last gasp. Attempting to smear with the racist label.
I think it wont work.
What part of the article is untrue?
Seriously? They think Trump losing Washington DC is a big deal????
HA HA HA HA HA
ROTFLMAO!
Too funny
As Wyoming goes, so goes... never mind.
“Primary” losses.
From what I understand, the turnout for Wyoming was maybe just a thousand or more people, and these were party insiders selected and chosen. Majority of delegates are undeclared. DC... well, that’s DC.
Seriously!
Wyoming had 900 people vote in the primary and those were political types not ordinary citizens.
Then DC voting was 100% establishment.
this article totally stupid.
No offense Wyoming, but major? (D.C. is a national joke)
Losing Wyoming and DC isn’t going to derail the express. We’re still screwed.
...and the anti-Trump media parade stumbles on.
...major primary contests on Saturday?
“Suffered”? It was DC + Wyoming. 21 delegates. Good grief.
The Soros/LaRaza-sabotage of these rallies is going to push Trump over the top Tuesday.
People are *SICK* OF THIS CRAP.
I’m a Cruz supporter and I’ll take the Wyoming delegates, but winning D.C. is an excellent way to point out the Establishment candidates. It is THERE that the order gets reversed. Cuz and TRump should be happy to be third and fourth place there.
