Probably not cause even if Cruz edged out Kasich in Michigan, Kasich still wont get out until after Ohio.

Studying Mississippi.....

Humphreys county, first of the "black belt" counties I see reporting (other than Hinds)....17% of the vote to "other." Is that Ben Carson? There isn't going to be a ton of Republican vote coming out of that area, but wouldn't it be something if Ben Carson held Trump short of 50%?

Looks like that was an anomaly. We are not seeing the same pattern in other "black belt" counties.

Brett Baier just reported that Cruz spent a mere $1,100 in Michigan.

Cruz up early in DeSoto county (suburban Memphis). He's doing better relatively vs Trump in the more affluent areas, except Gulfport, which maybe isn't all that affluent anyway. Lot of military around Biloxi....I wonder if Trump is getting that vote, and if so, why?

Cali Contrarian

Yeah, overall Cruz isn't doing that bad. Right around where I would have put him. Looks like he'll hold Trump down in MS....numbers keep shrinking there. Still a chance for a big surprise in Idaho. Idaho was barely polled. The one poll they did is meaningless. I actually favor Cruz there, maybe by a lot, if not the 50% I'd hoped for.

As more and more votes come in for MS, Trump now is finally dropping lower and lower. Hopefully the downward trend continues.

When does Idaho close?

11 PM Eastern. A small western part of the state is in Pacific time but some Idaho votes should start trickling in from the rest of Idaho thats in Mountain time.

If you're wondering about Hawaii and plan to stay up for that, you better make a full pot because Hawaii caucuses dont end til 1 AM Eastern
