The Trump press conference tonight should be really interesting. I expect it to be hard hitting against Cruz because the numbers seem to be showing Rubio as falling off the board and Cruz being the contender.

Hillary actually ended up with 11 more delegates on the night. He's just winning states that are too small in addition to his demographic problems. The numbers are not in his favor going forward either.

Sanders won Kansas and Nebraska. That’s the good news for him. The bad news is he’s even further from the nomination than he was before the day started: He lost Louisiana, and, in doing so, fell even further behind in the delegate hunt.
Let’s take a look at the math. Sanders won 23 delegates in Kansas to Clinton’s 10. He won — preliminarily — 14 delegates in Nebraska to Clinton’s 11. That’s a margin of 16 delegates.
In losing Louisiana, however, Sanders only claimed 12 delegates to Clinton’s 39.
Combine the three states, and Clinton gained 11 delegates on Sanders.
