If Cruz wins Maine of all places, I think it can be safely assumed all future caucuses are Cruz territory.

Everyone in this thread is missing the point. Trump is killing himself with these under-performances. He is pissing away delegates.

Romney got 70% of the vote in kentucky.

...because he was already the presumptive nominee.

I think an under-reported story is Trump significantly underperforming the polls in nearly every state so far.

Yeah, it's clear Drumpf has won LA and KY.

Still, he underperformed and if he stays at this level he won't get to a majority of delegates.

But if Trump underperformed, how can Cruz not winning Kentucky or Lousiana be considered anything other than under-performing. These should be his strong states. If he can't win there how is he going to get the delegates he needs from Ohio or Michigan or New York or Pennsylvania?

Uh? KY and LA were always considered to be Drumpf territory. Pretty sure he was expected to beat Cruz by 10+ in each.

Well if Cruz can't win in southern states, whats he doing in the race? and as it now looks like a two-horse contest, how can these results indicate anything other than a Drumpf win overall?

I don't think anyone expects someone else to win a majority of delegates. It's between an outright Trump win and a brokered convention.

Has anyone done the calculations on early vs. election day vote in LA? I'm guessing the gap will be massive.
