Donald Trump barely won Louisiana’s primary. In fact, he lost the actual primary day turnout. A big win in early voting helped him keep the lead, but it was close. So close, in fact, that for all intents and purposes, it was a draw.

Trump won by 30 thousand votes, 4 percentage points, just looking it up just now. Red State is as deceitful as usual.

It’s about delegates, not votes. Cruz clearly stated, early, he was going for delegates, not votes.

Apparently, that strategy is not as understood in this part of the process by other campaigns/candidates. That is why Cruz beat Trump in AZ.

Decision Desk says that Trump won by 11K votes.

Those guys are really grasping at straws!

If Louisiana was a draw, then what was Iowa? Cruz only won Iowa by 6,000 votes and got just one more delegate (8) than Trump (7). Yet all I hear is how Cruz "crushed" Trump in Iowa.

Who cares. As a Trump supporter, I'm willing to concede that Cruz is doing well overall. I'm actually proud that Trump and Cruz are combining for 80% or more of the delegates won so far and that the GOP establishment favorites like Bush, Perry and Rubio had to drop out of the race. Why are they so bitter?

Could have been a Trump/Cruz ticket but the nastiness of Cruz and his supporters are probably going to make that not possible.

If anyone is voting early for Trump, they weren’t going to flip their vote on primary day for another candidate.
