We get to early vote Thursday, I’ll be there with my “Make America Great Again” hat on. NC is Trump Country
To: grey_whiskers
has anyone done the TX vote breakdown by (early voting) vs. (on Super Tuesday) by candidate?With only 45.67% of the votes counted:
Cruz early votes: 419,013 Votes today: 785,621
Trump early votes: 293,506 Votes today: 496,992
The Texas SOS site updates every 6 minutes....but these are the numbers it shows now.

Me too. I thought higher of Trump before he basically said Cruz was Satan. Now I know he’s just a clown candidate.
To: lonestar67
>>>Maybe Trump would accept VP from Cruz. That would be acceptable to me and perhaps his followers<<<
No offense, but I think you just won the funniest Post on the Thread Award. Congratulations.

Morris is right.
And if the Trump camp continues the libel against Ted (even if it is not actionable ) they will win a Pyrrhic victory indeed..

OK, so... early votes: Cruz % = 419013/ (419013+293506) = 58.8%
today's votes: Cruz % = 785621/(785621+496992) = 61.2%
Huh. OK. So Trump gained ground in TX compared to early votes, but not tremendously..
Be interesting to break that down by region or something.
Thanks.

Welcome back!
Yes, Cruz said he is the only one who could beat Trump, backing it up with his three wins.
But as you point out, Trump beat Cruz 10 times. And he didn’t just beat Cruz, but he beat the establishment, too.
It’s ironic that Bush thought he could win without the base. But he failed.
Trump took a different path: He choose to be the leader of the base and new voters against the establishment. And he is winning.
Go Trump!
To: DoughtyOne
Well done. Better for unity.

The pussy thing and the “worst liar ever”
I knew that Trump knows the Clintons and certainly knows they lie worse than any Republican running.
I felt he was purely aiming at a cynical route for a personal win in politics once he refused to back off of those items.

Cruz is Satan. Cruz was my guy early on, I even convinced friends to vote for him but he has a purely evil side. I now see that his only real concern is getting to the WH. It's why he put on the shows in the Senate, why he wrote his book, called McConnell a liar on the floor all to establish himself as the outsider.
But I started seeing articles on Cruz and legalization then TPA happened. I saw the article Cruz wrote with Ryan advocating more power for Obama:
Ted Cruz joins the establishment
If Cruz were really for us and against Obama he wouldn't argue to give Obama more power under any circumstances. That's when I realized he's just another paid-for politician.

“MN has only 10 more delegates at stake than Alaska”
RNC awards “bonus” delegates to states that tend to vote Republican. So states with more elected Republicans and which have voted Republican in previous Presidential years will get additional delegates
To: goldstategop
Cruz way over performed tonight.
If trump wanted to win this on the cheap , he would have already charmed Ted to be his Vp.
Ted is young...

I didn’t know there were any rednecks in Oregon. I thought they just had millenial techno weenies.

Quiet now. “Hope he wins so he sticks around and splits the vote of Trump opposition.”
Actually, I hope both of them stay in for a long time for the same reason and how they generate votes for Trump.
