Even if he gets 40 in UT?
Cruz should have done far better than 22% in AZ. He is not terribly far off from Trump on immigration in the grand scheme, except for amnesty dabbles and H1B’s. They would have made a nice pair had it not gotten so acrimonious.
No. Its a vanity win.
The only good news he’ll have tonight.
Its not much but keeps him in the running.
Even if he gets 40 in UT?

With AZ, he still slides another 18 delegates behind Trump, and what plays in Utah doesn’t play in the rest of the country.
Considering NY and NJ have yet to vote and probably would vote for a fluffy white dog over Cruz, there’s no way he’ll get 1237 after tonight. Even if he tries to stuff his supporters into the delegate count, the establishment will use him and toss him aside because they’re much better at it than him.
