Strictly speaking...

Cruz got 1896650 votes and 140 delegates.

Trump got 1668920 votes and 143 delegates.

One could argue this is typical of the Cruz campaign:

Roll up huge numbers of votes in concentrated locales even though it isn't getting any additional delegates.

The strength of this is the raw numbers of votes statewide, which is how states are apportioned during the general.

The question is the number of crossover votes Cruz might get, given how strongly he is alienating Trump supporters.

...and then there's the effect on the down-ticket races to consider.
