“Missouri SOS shows NONE of the 137 precincts in KC have reported!”
Oh my if this is true.

Not sure about VP, but definitely a cabinet member.
She took the GOPee pill.
For the whole state??
Despite the OH loss to Kasich, and the two close races with Cruz in Missouri and NC, this was a huge night for Trump.
I show him winning 207 delegates on the night. Cruz will pick up about 80, and Kasich about 74.
At this stage, Trump has over a 200 delegate lead. With all the winner take all states coming up, I expect he is going to get to the magic number before the convention...but it may take him until June 7th now.
IMHO, Cruz has no path to an out right win now. The best he could do would be to win enough to deny the total math to Trump, and at this stage I feel that is a very outside chance in any case.
The absolute best Cruz should do now for the GOP and for the country would be to throw in with Trump as his VP.
At this stage, that would be my suggestion.
Sometime in April, make the deal for a Trump/Cruz ticket.
That would result in an absolute slam dunk against the GOPe, a slam dunk in numbers of delegates going into the convention, allow Trump to be in charge of the party rules, and unite the party for the general election against Hillary.
Yes!!!
The Show Me state is more like the Slow MO instead. The polls closed hours ago— get a move on already.
That may be why the networks have not made a call yet.
KC should go Trump.
On CNN Trump has a 2467 vote lead.
Good. Hang in there to the bitter end. This life is an amazing adventure.
I stand corrected.
Where is Buchanan county located and how large is it?
Yes, and the panel is driving me crazy! LOL
Amanda Carpenter? She used to work for Cruz and is a real snark. Not unlike her former boss she will make a statement that is maybe 60% accurate and state it as fact and then double-down on it. I’ve started calling her “Lyin’ Mandy”
2844 of 3041 Precincts Reported (93.5%) Donald J. Trump Republican 371,372 41.093% Ted Cruz Republican 368,381 40.762% http://enr.sos.mo.gov/EnrNet/
Cruz lost a lot of voters starting with the shenanigans in Iowa (Tweeting that Carson was leaving the race). The "Lyin' Ted" moniker fits.
Just about everybody we know now were former Cruz supporters, now planning to vote for Trump.
Is it true that no one has ever won the Presidency who lost Ohio?
I think it had to do with prejudice against the Irish in the mid to late 19th Century, but only in the US. Some people changed their spelling to differentiate Scots from Irish; but it wasn’t general, so it’s not possible to tell who in America is Irish or Scottish by the spelling; you have to know the origin of the name. My Scots always spelled it as Mc, with a little mark to indicate abbreviation; they never changed it.

It has been a fun election.
Probably big RAT districts working their "magic" on the ballots.
get a move on already.
I have a horrible feeling that "move on.org" is all over this.
