Trump dominating as expected. Nearly half the vote in Georgia (more than both Cruz and Rubio combined). Winning in every state except Texas. Rubio trying to hang on to 20 % in Texas, otherwise he gets no delegates there.
Arkansas coming up right now. Trump 34 %, Cruz 30 %, Rubio 25 % in exit polls there. Will be the closest race of the entire night for the GOP.

Perfect night for Trump. He wants Cruz to win Texas so that he is not forced to get out. It remains a 3 person race, dividing the vote all the way into March 15, when Rubio finally has to bow out with an embarrassing showing in his home state of Florida. Kasich is already on record as saying he'll stay in until at least Ohio, which will also be on March 15. After March 15, Cruz will have no shot (maybe not even mathematically) to overtake Trump. Welcome to your Republican nominee, folks.
Oh it's happening. I went vote for him today in Texas.Hi In 4 of the 9 states reporting, Trump has more votes than 2nd and 3rd combined. As I have stated on several occasions, his ceiling is way beyond that stupidly reported 35 %.
Cruz declared winner in Texas as expected. Rubio now under the 20 % threshold required to win any delegates in that state (at 19.5 % currently). Would be a huge blow if he comes away empty handed in his battle to see who gets out of the race first between him and Cruz.
