Exit Polling Proves Ted Cruz Is Right

Share:

The Super Tuesday I exit polling data were conclusive.

In every state where self-identified evangelical Christians gave U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz even a plurality of their support, he won. His placement in the other states also directly correlated with his ability to win self-described born-again Christians.

Based on the polling data, one could reasonably assume a pastor-driven voter education effort in future states might have a beneficial impact for the Texas senator. But time is running out.

To secure the nomination, Cruz still needs eight state delegate majorities, and he also needs to win nearly 60 percent of the remaining delegates. With all of the other Republican presidential candidates vowing to continue on, his pathway to the nomination becomes very difficult.

But even if evangelicals can’t give Cruz the nomination outright, by turning out, they can extend the contest all the way to the national convention by preventing the other candidates from achieving the necessary delegate counts.
