Tuesday’s primary results are in, and the results are as follows:
DEMOCRATS
Hillary Clinton won: Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, Illinois
Bernie Sanders won:
Missouri results too close to call.
REPUBLICANS
Donald Trump won: Florida, Illinois, North Carolina, and the Northern Mariana Islands
John Kasich won: Ohio
Marco Rubio accepted defeat and dropped out of the race, after losing in his home state of Florida no less. But where was Ted Cruz? Well, he’s got some relationships to mend in the GOP before they’ll offer him any support. He’s urged them to support him because he says if they nominate Drumpf, Clinton will surely clobber him in November. Anyway, here’s the way Election 2016 is shaping up and what’s on the horizon!
The Current Delegate Count:
(as of March 16th)
Democratic Total Delegates, 4765 (Candidate needs 2383 to win)
