Arizona goes to the polls on March 22 and as a winner-take-all state, it is of vital importance.
Given the state of play in the republican race, the 58 delegates available in Arizona could go a long way towards deciding the final outcome.
Often at this stage of a campaign most of the republican establishment figures will have thrown their support behind one candidate in particular and the outcome will be a forgone conclusion. This time however, given that the favorite and current frontrunner, businessman Donald Trump is such a polarizing candidate, many in the party are actually plotting in order to deny him the nomination.
The RealClearPolitics average of polls indicates the following percentages in Arizona
Donald Trump 34%
Ted Cruz 21%
John Kasich 12.5%
Should these numbers materialize on the day of the election then Trump will make off with the 58 delegates and be one step closer to the 1,237 that he requires in order to secure the nomination outright. We will have to wait and see.
