WASHINGTON, (APP/AFP) – Texas Senator Ted Cruz
commanded new momentum Wednesday in the race for the White House
with a solid Wisconsin primary win, making it harder for frontrunner
Donald Trump to clinch the Republican nomination outright.
Upstart senator Bernie Sanders also beat frontrunner Hillary
Clinton in the Midwestern state, bolstering his claim to be a
viable alternative standard-bearer to the former secretary of
state and first lady.
Sanders has now won six of the last seven Democratic
nominating contests against Clinton.
But the Wisconsin results were almost certainly
more damaging for Trump.
The billionaire stormed to the fore last year with a
brash anti-establishment message.
