holy sh**t i didn't realize cruz vs trump was so close in missouri lol

I don't even know where Cruz got all his voted from. Nearly all of his support must have been compacted in Kansas City, Springfield and Columbia.

I'm curious as to why much of SW MO was so strong for Cruz and not Trump

I wonder why Hillary held up so well in the Southeastern corner of the state. Arkansas effect?

Perhaps the open primary format meant that more people in these heavily D-registration counties crossed over to Trump, leaving more committed Democrats to support Hillary as opposed to anti-Hillary protest voting.

Or they're more similar in political culture to Southern White counties where Sanders bombed out.
