I think these results still matter.
Cruz wants the loyalty of a majority of delegates to feel safe after the first ballot. If only a plurality of the delegates are Cruz loyalists (with Trump supporters and establishment people making up the rest), its possible that it will take a while for the eventual nominee to emerge.
If Trump wins on the first ballot, hostile delegates would still have control over who his running mate is.
