By making a lie that Carson was dropping out, Carson voters went to Cruz. This could have influenced the outcome. Donald is correct, this is vote fraud and Ted is responsible for the conduct of his campaign people.

How do Carson's voters going to Cruz mean a net positive for Trump? Obviously, they were not Trump voters. Rubio's campaign was heavily telling everyone this as well. Why isn't he going after Rubio?

I was on Twitter that night, and this was on CNN, which started an absolute avalanche of Tweets.

Before you accuse Cruz's people of not being ethical, have you seen the recnet Trump tweets which make up horrible lies about people taking money and/or begging for jobs from him? They easily proved with a paper trail that they did not - the two most recent are Bob Vander Plaats and Cheri Jacobus. He's disgusting. How you defend THIS defamation is beyond me. I don't understand.

It's OK for Trump to try to personally destroy anyone who gets in his way, because Trump just wants to Make America Great Again(tm)!

Or something...

Carson voters were steered to the Cruz contingent based on a lie. The percentage may have been significant enough to put Cruz on top. Carson is popular with evangelical voters.

Thank you for posting the tweet. I can definitely see how it could be interpreted as Carson dropping out after Iowa. Not participating in the next 2 states is tantamount to ending a run...

However, to be fair, it was NOT an explicit statement, so the Iowa campaign team should apologize.
