Its always be somewhat conservative, the oilmen but farmers at that time were Democrats.

I actually voted for Trump in the Republican primary hoping it would stop Cruz and knowing Hillary can beat Trump because rational republican minds will vote for Hilary this fall.

have been building thru Rush Limbaugh and other talking heads and hateful people like Ann Coulter. The Republican wanted them and supported then to hat government and taxes and immigrants. This is the fruit of the Republican agenda since the Southern Strategy

I have been wondering which states were winner take all or proportional. This makes a big difference in delegates awarded.

What the following link for Texas is a "Winner take the most" in addition to
"proportional" "winner take all.

There is a large table about 2/3 of the way down and is very good. I hope someone with good computer skills can post the chart on line.

Winner Take All & Proportional
