Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders were the winners in Indiana. The big story after the primaries was Ted Cruz suspending his campaign.
After seeing no viable path, Cruz made the decision that it was time to end his pursuit of the nomination. Trump’s win helps him in his quest to win the Republican nomination outright with 1,237 delegates.
The Indiana victory gives the Sanders campaign a needed boost. Sanders still faces difficult delegate math on his path to a potential nomination.
The Republicans will head to Nebraska next week while West Virginia will be the next state to host a primary on the Democratic side.
