Buh Bye Teddie………
The Results are in from the Hoosier state, and Bernie won, and Cruz got beat so badly that he dropped out of the race:
Businessman and reality-TV star Donald Trump became the Republican party’s presumptive presidential nominee on Tuesday night, after Trump’s closest rival – Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) – withdrew from the race, following a crushing victory by Trump in the Indiana primary.Sanders won by about 5 points, and Trump by about 17 points.
The GOP’s chairman, Reince Priebus, called Trump the “presumtive [sic] GOP nominee” in a Twitter message about 9 p.m., and added a plea that “we all need to unite and focus on defeating” Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.
In the Democratic race in Indiana, Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) was projected as the winner, taking an upset victory over Clinton. That victory will not allow Sanders to make up much ground in the race for Democratic delegates, but it will ensure that their race continues on -- creating a scenario few would have seen coming last summer, with Trump gaining a head start on the Democratic nominee.
This makes it a pretty good night.
