holy sh**t i didn't realize cruz vs trump was so close in missouri lol
I don't even know where Cruz got all his voted from. Nearly all of his support must have been compacted in Kansas City, Springfield and Columbia.
I'm curious as to why much of SW MO was so strong for Cruz and not Trump
That portion of Missouri is an anomaly and one of the rural areas in the state that his higher household income compared to that northern and southeastern regions of missouri. As we know working class populist voters in the republican primary tended to be more supportive of Trump and you could see a pattern of how lower income counties tended to be stronger for him compared to counties with higher incomes.
