Ted Cruz has won Utah's Republican presidential caucus to score a key victory in his bid to close the gap on front runner Donald Trump.
Cruz is on pace to take all of the state's delegates by finishing with more than 50 percent of the vote.

You might be right, Liz. I want to think the best of Heidi Cruz, but the way Cruz is coordinating with the Establishment? Hm ....
Be my guest.......join me in getting the ball rolling.
Living in Mormon country and most are like Romney and hatch. I’d Lee Mormon or Christian?
You got that right. Pass the word.
In Utah? Mormon Country? Oh, yeah, that'd be a winner--NOT!.
Nice spin, but Trump grew the gap last night.. Cruz win did not shrink it.
Ted accomplished nothing last night. He fell further behind Trump. I predicted his big win in Utah and so did anyone else paying attention. The mormons got their marching orders and they did what they were told to do.
Utah is a mormon state and the mormons there voted for who they were told to vote for. Cruz.
Reality will set in with these folks at some point. Probably the morning of November 9, 2016.
You are absolutely right.
Trump was never going to win Utah but that doesn’t excuse vote tampering & fraud. Utah really showed their colors. They made the primary in Utah about their brainless following of religious leaders & elders and about their willingness to blatantly pervert the process to keep power in the hands of the Chosen. One of our National priorities has got to be the reestablishment of secure elections, one person, one vote, transparent process with tampering safeguards.
I would hate for it to have to come that late for these children to grow up. But as the leader goes, so the do the followers.
Cruz wins a contest he was expected to win, and that’s the end for Trump.
Sure.
The deepening BS from the Cruz camp reeks of desperation.
So what are the delegate totals for Trump and Cruz? How much has Ted closed that ol’ gap?
Trump was never going to win Utah....Mitt is a Bishop in the Mormon Church and basically ordered Mormons to vote anti-Trump.....
Forget the ideology of which candidate is the most conservative....Mormons dislike the theatrics....No dance, limited song and no public displays of emotion.....This is Trump’s schtick.....
All that aside, their was apparently serious cheating by the party last night in Utah.... Many on the ground reports from various sources confirm it.... Would the outcome have changed? Other than margins, doubtful. But this should be of great concern to all of us....
Once we look the other way, we are guilty by association....Call your Republican representative and demand an investigation!
Close the gap? now that’s funny.
Nobody believes Cruz won this legitimately.
First hand insider reports at the Utah Caucus indicate Incompetence, Manipulation, and Ballot Stuffing ruled the day.

Orrin Hatch impresses Utah voters.

In this case it was Mike Lee who impressed his native Utahns with his endorsement. Or is Lee not an establishment toadie?
Utah was the last caucus state. A total of 171,902 people participated, versus 523,584 in Arizona, a state Trump won by a margin of 23%.
Most of the rest of the states are winner-take-all or winner-take-most. The most Cruz can hope to do at this point, is deny Trump just enough delegates that he doesn’t get the nomination on the first ballot, thus allowing the Establishment to install Romney (or some other reliable loser).
But that will keep the FR purists happy.
By that logic pleas explain the UT 93 pct vote for the MA liberal in 2012...
Utah voter fraud report must be sent to the Trump team.
