He ended up winning his home state, and sharing delegates. And the neighboring state of Oklahoma, and sharing delegates."

He continued, "On the other hand, you look at Virginia, a state where we were down 20 points in the polls...we basically fought Donald Trump to a draw, despite having to share the ballot with a number people that probably took votes away, and we're going to leave there with as many delegates as he has.
