Trumpmentum Returns, But…

March 15 primary/ delegate results
Delegates won on March 15th 2016

Congratulations to Donald Trump who had a great night on March 15th, winning four races and sweeping up 161 Delegates. Kasich won his home state of Ohio and Missouri is still too close to call (Trump is ahead by 0.2% or 2000 votes as of this writing with precincts left to report).

So, all-in-all, an impressive display. But? Team Rubio has told its supporters to vote for Cruz. That will have an impact on the rest of the primary season. Rubio also has 168 Delegates to date, votes that can inevitably go for Cruz. Without knowing the mind of Missouri Mr. Trump is at 621 while Cruz (with Rubio’s help) is at a potential 563.

That is still a very close race.
