Ohio is considered perhaps the most important contest of the day due to the narrow polling margin between the two frontrunners in the state, Donald Trump and Ohio Governor John Kasich.
The latest RealClearPolitics indicates the following percentages
John Kasich 36.8%
Donald Trump 33.6%
Ted Cruz 19.2%
Marco Rubio 5.2%
Whoever emerges victorious in the state will obtain all of the 66 candidates on offer as Ohio has a winner-take-all format, making it all the more important. Many commentators have stated that should Trump win Florida and Ohio then he will be well on his way to obtaining the nomination, although others have suggested he may fall just short of the 1,237 delegates that he requires, thus heralding in a brokered convention.
Whatever happens, you can follow the results here live as they come in.
Donald Trump 35.6%
Ted Cruz 13.1%
Marco Rubio 2.9%
