Are AL and MS WTA's (Winner Take All) states?

If not, Gingrich would only be getting a share not all of those delegate votes, which would not help his lagging numbers much at all.

Neither Alabama nor Mississippi are WTA states.

Delegetes are to be allocated proportionally to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the state’s congressional districts.

In addition, delegates are to be allocated to presidential contenders based on the primary vote statewide.

Newt has an outstanding chance to pick up many more delegates.
