Ted Cruz 51,649 votes
Donald J. Trump 45,416 votes
Marco Rubio 43,132 votes
Ted Cruz beat Trump by 6233 votes
Ted Cruz beat Rubio by 8517 votes
Donald Trump beat Rubio by only 2284 votes
So Cruz beat Trump by roughly 3x as many votes as Trump beat Rubio
This was a YUGE loss for Trump!!
20 point hole... says who? The obviously incorrect polls? No votes have been cast in New Hampshire... There is no hole
I challenge these results. Trumps crowds were huge. The other guys didn’t have that kind of interest. Nobody did. There was no sign that masses of Trump attendees decided they didn’t like him so much.
These results are good for Cruz. I get that. But if this had been done to him, wouldn’t you be saying “hey something is not right here!”?
We should all recognize that we are being had here. This time it’s Cruz who benefits but next time he might be the guy who gets screwed.

And he has ONE delegate more. THAT’S IT. One measly delegate.
After one year of living there, millions of dollars, tons of people having to be shipped into Iowa to work his operations.
He has ONE whole delegate to show for it.

That’s cute. NH is not Iowa. So sorry, there isn’t some podunk process to foul-around with or spend a year massaging to win. So if you think Cruz has no hole to bridge, you are blowing smoke.
