Trump was the first Yankee since Sherman to burn through the South. You might want to look at who won there.

Cruz was third in FL and OH. No road leads to the White House without FL. Cruz can’t win it, especially with half the base pissed off because their votes were overturned in the primaries because of backroom deals.

In my state of Georgia, he got 39%, Rubio and Cruz 24%, and Carson and Kasich got about 6% each. A sold win for Trump, but Cruz/Rubio appealed to the same demographic. Again, Georgia is an open primary, it is not unreasonable to suspect that many if not most of the crossover votes of Dem and Independent voters went for Trump. Sanders doesn't play down here, so more Dems were free to crossover.
