According to Decision Desk Headquarters, former President Trump has won the Mississippi Republican presidential primary and will move closer to winning the Republican nomination.
Trump has already won more than 1,000 delegates for the Republican nomination and is likely to win most, if not all, of Mississippi’s 40 delegates.
The Magnolia State’s delegates are determined partly by the statewide results and partly by the results of the Congressional delegates. There are 28 based on state results and 12 based on results from four congressional districts.
However, if a candidate receives more than 50 percent of the vote in a state or district, that candidate will receive all the delegates that state or district can allocate. Therefore, as the only active major candidate on the ballot, Trump has a very good chance of winning over everyone.
