Hey Media: Rubio is only 1 delegate behind Cruz

Despite the media obituaries for Senator Marco Rubio’s campaign, the delegate math tells a starkly different story.

With the voting completed in New Hampshire and Iowa, Donald Trump leads the delegate count with 17 delegates, Sen. Ted Cruz is in second with 11 delegates, and Sen. Marco Rubio is in third with 10 delegates.

Gov. John Kasich — who despite having won a lower percentage of the vote than Gov. Jon Huntsman in 2012, was crowned by the media as the victor of the New Hampshire primary — has just 5 delegates.

Gov. Jeb! Bush has just 4 delegates, after attacking nearly every other candidate and wasting millions of dollars.
