Maine caucus so far (1 caucus site out of 22):
Cruz     49.8%
Trump  30.8%
Kasich  10.5%
Rubio     7.6%

What? The entire state has only 22 caucus sites?

Looks that way:
http://mainegop.com/caucus/

Most counties have only one caucus site, except for the most populous or largest geographically, which have up to 3.  And there are only 16 counties in Maine.

The more I hear about caucuses, state by state, the worse they sound.

I feel the same way.

It would seem to me that Cruz would be the third choice for Maine residents behind Trump and Kasich.  I'm interested to see the results.  It would be an upset if Cruz can pull it off.  It would show that Trump may be losing his luster among the GOP.

Of course Cruz is doing well in Maine, it's practically Canada!

Haha!

Any reason why Kansas hasn't been called, yet?  Are there caucuses still going on?

There are MASSIVE lines in Wichita that have not yet even begun to caucus yet

Oh ok, I figured that had to be the reason.  All these scattered times for all the states have me quite confused...  Thanks!

42-31 Trump in KY with 14% in.  We don't have the metros in, yet, but anyone expecting a Trump call pretty soon?

Remember they don't have exit polls so they need to see real enough votes in all areas of a state to make a call.

I forgot about that.  They are kind of working along with the rest of us, so it will take longer.  I was just hoping we could jump start the evening again.  Silly me, lol.

Under Kentucky rules, do either Rubio or Kasich qualify for delegates as things stand now?

Yes.  5% threshold, IIRC.

That's right. Delegates are apportioned only statewide with a 5% threshold.

How disappointing.  Thanks!

What is holding up Maine?  CNN still has the same 9% it's had for the past hour or more.
