He couldn/t fool evangelicals. Cruz bet a bundle in the south to get their votes. He even took to the lectern, to give a sermon. But evangelicals saw right through the pose....they rejected him handily....his strategy was a big bust.
This primary election is a charade. Its a lopsided win for Trump. But, We are stuck with the GOPe and a guy trying to steal delegates from a winner and promote a rules change to qualify a win for himself.
Cruz has weaseled wins in small caucus states with oddball vote counting methods and some are certainly questionable (Maine & now LA).
Cruz carried these states:
Virgin Islands. by 30 votes
Wyoming........by 480 votes
Alaska............by 600 votes
Maine.............by 2,500
Teds total votes from 9 wins.
Wyoming....... 620 people and
Virgin Islands 200 people
Alaska..... 8,400
Maine...... 8,500
Kansas... 35,000
Iowa...... 52,000
Utah..... 122,000
Okie..... 158,000
Thats eight states totaling 385,000 votes.
If it wasnt for Texas, hed have a pile of beans!
Cruzs homeTexas win was 1,239,393
Cruz won 9 states with..... 1,724,000 votes
Trump won 21 states, and nearly all the states were won by tens and hundreds of thousands of votes. The millions that have attended his rallies have voted.

Trump won 21 states with 6,020,000 votes. He has a total of 7,897,990 votes and 755 delegates. Thats 290 more than Ted.
Cruzs only way to prevail now is by pure chicanery, just how he began this campaign. It is impossible now for him to have a clean delegate win
Many have been surprised how poorly Teddy Cruz did in the South. His blame Trump comments are so over the top, one wonders where are his advisers. Or are they the problem?
The buzz is ...... several years ago, Heidi filed for legal separation based on Ted/s infidelity. Papers have yet to surface...probably sealed.
Then again, that/s how Obama won his Chicago Senate seat.....David Axelrod finagled to get sealed divorce papers on Obama/s opponent which contained salacious details WRT group sex, etc.
