It's interesting how similar the maps are.

I think the map will look something like this:


Blue=Donald Trump
Gold=Cruz
Green=Kasich
Red=Rubio

NOTE: I shaded the states that have already voted >90%. I shaded the states that haven't voted yet at >30%.

This is the best case scenario for Kasich and the worst case scenario for Trump:


Blue=Donald Trump
Gold=Cruz
Green=Kasich
Red=Rubio

THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST KASICH COULD DO. I can't see him doing any better than this.

Trump dominates.

I honestly don't know who wins Washington, but I'd have to say Cruz seems unlikely; way too religious and socially conservative. Washington Republicans tend to go for the pro-business candidate around Seattle and the "libertarian" seeming candidate elsewhere, and I don't think Cruz really fits either bill.

I don't know.  I haven't looked into this in any detail, but is there any evidence that Cruz is picking off at least some of the Paulistas now?  Notice that in the exit polls of the most recent primary states, in all the states where Cruz and Trump are the top two, Trump wins olds while Cruz wins youngs.  (Or at least, if he doesn't win youngs, he comes closer to winning them than he does to winning olds.)  This is actually a reversal of the situation six months ago, when the polls had Trump doing better among younger Republican voters.

Also remember that in the 2008 Washington caucus, it's quite possible that either Huckabee or Paul would have won if the vote counting hadn't been so incompetent or corrupt.

Yeah but WA is a primary this time so the Paulite faction should have much less influence on the outcome.

True.  Of course, it's also two months away, and who knows where things will stand at that point.  For all we know, Kasich might be out of the race by then, and Cruz will be the only non-Trump option.

Kasich wins Indiana, Maryland, Connecticut.

trump wins remainder (WI, WV, PA, NJ, DE, NY, RI).

Trump- Blue
Cruz- Red
Rubio- Gray
Kasich- Green

This looks pretty reasonable to me.

I agree, with the exception of Kasich winning Maryland.

Kasich is not going to win Maryland or Connecticut. If I know anything about Indiana--which I certainly hope I do considering I'm dating someone from there and we talk about politics a lot--it's likelier to be Cruz country.

Give me maps predicting the results, or as you think they'll happen I should say.

Indiana and South Dakota most likely to go either way.

I would also add Hawaii, West Virginia, and Kentucky as other possible 'swing states'.

Dark Red: Trump already won
Light Red: Trump will win
Dark Green: Cruz already won
Light Green: Cruz will win
Dark Blue: Kasich already won
Grey: Kasich already won

Montana, Washington, and Wisconsin will be the 3 closest states.

I thought Kasich wasn't on the ballot in PA?
