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.
