Though Ted Cruz won the Kansas caucus in March, the state's republican party is now working to get behind Donald Trump as he's the presumptive GOP nominee.

"Today is kind of like the beginning of the republican party quest to beat Hilary Clinton," said Chairman of the Kansas Republican Party Kelly Arnold.

Back in March, Kansas republicans gave Cruz 48.2% of the caucus vote giving him 24 delegates. Trump got 23.3% of the vote giving him 9 delegates.

Some Kansans said as the election comes closer, they're not sure where their vote lies.

"This is a really difficult time," said Wichitan Jeanie Tade. "I'm not sure that I really approve of anyone."

Wichitan Leslie Fralin said, "I'm a little scared because I'm leery about the candidates. I don't think either one of them will make a good president because the economy now is bad and it's going to get worse."

"I honestly think that everyone is after their own conveniences," said Wichitan Judith Eguino. "I really don't foresee a candidate that I would be pleased to vote for."

But many Kansans are in favor of Trump and Arnold said the Kansas party falls into that category. He said the fact that Kansans preferred Cruz in the caucus isn't a new situation to the state.

"This is nothing new compared to what we've done in 2008 and 2012. We voted for Governor Huckabee. Then we voted for Governer Rick Santorum. But at the end of the day, we came together and all supported our nominee. I expect nothing different this time. We will go to the convention in Cleveland united," Arnold said.

The party said Donald Trump will have to spearhead the attempt at making Cruz, Rubio and Kasich supporters switch to back him in the election. Arnold said it's up to Trump to unite the party.

"Not concerned about people switching," Arnold said. "Main concern is people coming out to vote. If you look in the 2012 election we had well over 1,000,000 republican voters stay home and not vote for Mitt Romney. We can't have that again."

Donald Trump's friend and fellow businessman Phil Ruffin said he doesn't think winning over the party will be an issue for Trump.

"He'll unite the party eventually. I think that will all come to terms with Donald. On a primary, you say things, you do things. On a general election, it's a different animal. He will pick the right people to help him. He's very bright, very brilliant, very smart. I don't think they have to worry a bit," Ruffin said.

When Trump spoke in Kansas on caucus day, he said Ruffin convinced him to change his schedule and come to Kansas which is Ruffin's home state.

"I hated that because I'm from Kansas and I spoke on his behalf in Kansas," Ruffin said. "It was Cruz territory and they just overwhelmingly went for Cruz. I don't think they understood Donald very much. I think Kansas will vote for him rather than Hilary. I was very disappointed in what happened in Kansas."

Eyewitness News wanted to know what happens to the former candidates' delegates now that they've dropped out of the race. The Kansas Republican Party said it depends on the state but in Kansas, delegates are bound to vote for the candidate they were allocated to in the national convention unless the candidate releases them.

Arnold said he hasn't heard from any of the former campaigns that the delegates are released but he said that usually comes right before the national convention.
