As others have said, this is the day where Republican campaigns will be "defined"...........or come to an end.
Final RCP polling averages before this crucial contest leaves Donald Trump in a comfortable lead at 31.8%, with Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio in a virtual tie for second place, (Rubio--18.8% & Cruz---18.6%). In the "race" for third place, Jeb Bush is at 10.7%, followed by Kasich, 9.0% and Carson, 6.8%.
I will keep this thread open through out the day to add updates on this primary, along with any breaking news stories that develop.
