Yet Trump only won about five Texas counties. It is hard for the weak-minded to resist the celebrity and media frenzy surrounding Trump. Cruz prevailed despite this.
This election cycle is not comparable to others.
I don’t care about that. My point is that Cruz did not get a majority of the vote in the state where he is supposedly a popular sitting Senator. W got over 80% in the Texas primary when he ran as the sitting governor. Perhaps Texans are not overwhelmingly happy with Cruz. Once we see how Trump does in NY then we can compare how each did in his home state.
