Carson's incompetence, but a coincidence that in two states, the Cruz campaign said candidates were dropping out. As for Kasich and the Soros story, here's another:
Even if this was unproven, state after state we heard of these kinds of things.
@TomSea@mystery-ak@txradioguy @Cyber Liberty Tom, my friend, I kept up with Cruz happenings every day during the presidential election.
Cruz himself did not say Carson was dropping out. It was a Cruz worker who heard Carson was going home after that state's primary so he thought Carson was dropping out - CNN also said that. Once Cruz found out his worker said that, he stopped it.
It was a Cruz campaign worker in Hawaii who thought Rubio was dropping out and he said that to the press. Again, once Cruz heard that, he stopped it.
A campaign of any presidential candidate has thousands of workers and no candidate knows what an individual worker might say. What matters is what happens when the candidate finds out. Cruz did the right thing in every instance, stopping what was said.
This coming November election in Texas: I use actual numbers in a primary to be a "crystal ball" sort of, maybe, predictor of the November election. Democrats turned out in huge numbers for our primary - hundreds of thousands more than has ever happened in a non-presidential year in this state. I was amazed, in a bad way, when I studied the numbers.
At the present time, every Texas state office holder is a Republican. Both the Texas House and Texas Senate is a Republican majority. The worst case scenario is Gov. Abbott and Senator Cruz and all state offices change to Democrats and every county office, except for a few, turn Democrat. Surely that won't happen but the primary numbers have never been like they were this year. It is Trump who has caused this. You know what I think about Trump, but I am only one person; it is millions made up of Democrats, and likely all Independents who are going to show up and vote Democrat for all offices. Independents seldom show up at primaries; they wait until November.
This country is split about 40% Democrats and 40%; it is the 20% Independents who determine who is elected. Independents won't vote Republican this time as a direct vote against Trump. I wish this was not true, but it is what I see happening.
