Some of these states have 20% thresholds for candidates to be eligible for delegates, so that's a key thing to watch for tonight with Cruz and Rubio right around the 20% mark in some states.

On the Democrat side, one pollster has Bernie up 5 in Oklahoma, which makes that one of the states to watch. Massechussetts has Hillary up anywhere from 3 to 11, but that's another where Bernie can (and probably needs to) win.
It's so weird, I don't know a single person voting for or supporting Trump. At least not one that will admit it. I seem to hang around more right wing people than left, and they are all aghast that the Republicans are going to end up with a joke candidate. Even my FB friends who go on about every right wing cause are all anti Trump. So who are these people voting for him? I think until he starts getting closer to 50% though, it is still a race, because I don't think he is anyone's second choice if more candidates ever drop out.
