Trump Is on Track to Dominate Super Tuesday
Trump has led the polling in every state voting today except three (Texas, Arkansas, and Minnesota), and he is very likely to win at least seven of the eight states where he has led. While the delegate allocation in these states is proportional, there are fairly high thresholds in several states (Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas) that require a candidate to get 20% to be awarded any delegates. Other states have thresholds of 10 or 15% (e.g., Massachusetts). In both kinds of states, either Cruz or Rubio has been falling short of these thresholds and may receive nothing.
