Indiana Primary 5/03/16

                     At 7:50 PM East coast time, Donald Trump was named the winner in the Indiana primary. He won with 53.2 precent, Cruz came in second with 36.7%, and Kasich in third with 7.6%. The results caused candidate Ted Cruz to drop out of the race leaving Trump as the perspective nominee of the Republican party. The delegate distribution with Cruz out of the race gave Trump 51 with 6 other delegates not awarded to anybody yet.
         In the Democratic primary race Sanders came out the victor. Although he won by a slim margin he still won the majority with 52.5%. That left Clinton with a second place loss and 47.5 percentile in the vote count. Sanders won a big 43 delegates, and Clinton won 37 delegates. Even with this win though, Clinton has almost clinched the Democratic nomination and needs only a couple hundred delegates to clinch the nomination to move to the general election.
           This relates to my AP Government class because it will decide the future of our nation. Like most presidents, as we have learned in class, they make big footprints in the bureaucracy in the United States, and also in the history of the world. The next President has a lot of problems to face and it will be interesting to see which candidate America decides best to handle the job.
