A whole lot is in the paper today so let's just get into it.
Abbott
and
Serduchka's
Super Tuesday performances still are at the top of the paper. But
Negarir's
Super 2uesday dominance is up there just as high, along with Super Saturday's likewise performance.
Reckoner
taking Michigan literally gets more coverage than Spire nailing Super Saturday and any of the other wins on the Democratic side last night. And, of course, withdrawls still are up there:
Khan, Defender, TSL
.
Spire
and
Negarir
are enjoying good coverage off their Fox News Sunday appearances, while
Serduchka
did a bit of comedy on Colbert.
Negarir
thinks he's right on corruption (his position: Democrats are corrupt), and gets
Sen. Angus King
in his corner. Meanwhile,
Abbott
gets an endorsement from
Gov. Alejandro Garcia Padilla
, which is super timing since Puerto Rico literally is over.
Spire
lastly gets
Gov. Pete Ricketts
.

The news cycle strength is how good or bad your media was for the week, if you had any media at all, and if the cycle was a week long or during special updates. The ads just tell you who's producing what, and what's being targeted in each. Scandals are self-explanatory. The full picture has basically everything that happened, but unformatted, so you can cry while you read it.

never truly managed to break into the upper echelons of the race. Only winning one state--and late in his campaign, with no prospects for further victories--the writing was on the wall for some time. And
Peanuts
' delegate count was similarly lackluster.
Peanuts
, notably, was by far the most left-wing candidate in the race at the time of his withdrawal. While most candidates shift positions,
Peanuts
' own positioning stuck out like a sore thumb, and perhaps his failure to adapt to the primary electorate cost him valuable votes, valuable delegates, and valuable fundraising opportunities.
Peanuts
will make it slightly easier for a candidate to achieve a majority of delegates on the floor. But it's still not guaranteed.
Peanuts
' best opportunity was to, somehow, gain more delegates than
McGriddles
(a plausible scenario) and leapfrog on the floor. But he was never going to earn more than a thousand delegates.

Of course,
Negarir
is at the top for winning the debate. It's kinda
Negarir
day, to be honest, with his primary wins and a stint on Colbert also dominating positively. Two more senators endorse Republicans:
Sen. Mike Crapo
is for
Abbott
and
Sen. Susan Collins
is for
Negarir
. I'm not sure if the Democrats even did anything today.

(D) has suspended his campaign after a string of disappointing results.
With
Peanuts
exiting, it was really only a matter of time until
McGriddles
followed suit. His results were comparable with the former, in a sense; they both polled low, they both didn't manage to dominate debates, they both weren't on track for good delegate totals. In the end, it was inevitable.
McGriddles
had a funding problem, as well, with only $179k in the bank and $35mil raised, at the low end of the Democratic scale. And while others may be in similar financial situations, they have the votes to show for it:
McGriddles
did not. Whilst he did win Texas, it was the only bright light in a sea of more disappointing results. And the Texas delegation will make the majority of his 313 delegate haul.
Where
McGriddles
' votes go now is a mystery. A two-horse race between
Serduchka
and
Spire
threatens to become a three-way battle to the end, depending on where the 20%-30% votes of the two suspended candidates go. The future is as unpredictable as ever.
In the event of a contested convention--still a possibility, although with three candidates now in the race, we reach the point where the 500~ delegates suspended only become important in narrowly specific circumstances--it's unclear where
McGriddles
' loyalties lie. His relations with other candidates are not incredible. Who he chooses to pledge delegates too, if required, is unknown.

11%

Funny enough, in real life, the D.C. Republican contest is a convention, but it's a primary here. Also, Guam literally has nobody, so it's literally one vote = one delegate. Let's go.

iirc that's definitely what happened in colorado which i guess flowed on to one delegate = one vote or something, and also colorado had unbound delegates so technically voting meant absolutely nothing. quick google says the same happened in guam so maybe that's why

Spire
is basically high on the spectacular leadership he's gonna bring on Colbert, while
Negarir
doesn't fall for a single gotcha question on Meet the Press. It's a quiet day, because RNC proportionality rules expire tonight, and someone's going to benefit, and who wants to make news when we can all talk about that instead. And, final note, the
