I’m on board with a Microsoft conspiracy for four reasons.
1. it’s Microsoft
2. Cruz managed to maintain a 3% lead all night right up to the end. Then boards like these started posting it was essentially a tie with delegates and he magically, in the 99% counted frame, went to 6 delegates.
3. Rubio was a nobody with the press pumping him up for days. Even with that his poll numbers never went up then Wham!
4. I don’t put stock in entrance/exit polls but that was a big difference, 8 to 10%
Hey Tin Foil. Your horse lost. Shit happens.
CSPAN 97% of Precincts reporting 10.28 PM CST
Cruz 50684 27.7% 8 delegates Trump 44477 24.3% 7 Rubio 42228 23.1% 6 Carson 17022 9.3% 2 Paul 8252 4.5% 1
Hillary 50.2% Bernie 49.3% both have 21 delegates
The more I think about it, it is strange. The polls had Trump winning comfortably or at least ahead, the conventional wisdom had it that a high turnout was great for Trump and early exit polls had him winning. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but something seems up.
