Donald Trump had a great performance on Super Tuesday and early polling numbers show that could continue in the upcoming primaries. According to RealClear Politics, Trump is favored by an average of 15.4 percentage points in Michigan.
The Michigan Republican primary will take place on March 8. It is an important state with 59 delegates up for grabs. Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio hope they can narrow the gap in Michigan prior to the primary date. The GOP held its most recent debate in Detroit, Michigan just days before the primary.

Is it winner takes all like here in FL?
Maybe the race-baiting by Cruz and Rubes is hurting them.
Pollsters should be including Romney now that he’s shooting off his mouth. Maybe seeing JEB-like numbers would send him back into hibernation.
MAYBE NOW - but just until ROMNEY’s OPPOSITION gets around...
...hmmm
...never mind.
I think somebody said winner takes all starts March 15 or so.
I think.
OK thank you.

Yes, it’s winner takes all in Florida. Here’s a great source for those kind of questions.

If you get over 50% in MI, it’s winner take all.
The Cruzor Losers will spin a 3rd place finish into a victory.
On March 8, winner-take-all rules apply in Idaho, Michigan, and Mississippi if a candidate gets over 50%.
Good. Trump has a large lead in Louisiana. Looking good. Of course we know there will be an all out assault by the GOPe against Trump. I hope the voters remain firm.

Michigan is winner-take-most. Probably similar to Texas, Alabama:
In Texas Cruz got 104 of 155 (67%) delegates, Trump 48 (31%), Rubio 3 (2%).
In Alabama Trump got 36 of 50 (72%), Cruz 13 (26%), Rubio 1 (2%).
Michigan has 59 delegates.
Any allocated to less than 20%? If no, may be effective winner take all

thanks
With Romney shooting his mouth off, Trump will get 51% if I can help it!
Thank you for taking the time to give me that information.
