The news reported at 14% margin for Cruz. I was looking for the actual number, but will keep looking.

"The news reported at 14% margin for Cruz. I was looking for the actual number, but will keep looking."

In early voting the week before the election, Ted Cruz got 52.9% of the votes, but on election day that increased dramatically to 60.7%. The final margin of the total vote was 57% to 43% as you know.

The Get Out The Vote effort was amazing for this runoff election. FreedomWorks called our home twice (Monday and on election day) to remind us to vote (we voted the week before). Over 1.1 million Republican votes were cast in the Texas runoff and Cruz won by more than 150,000 votes.
