Rubio wins Minnesota GOP caucuses



Marco Rubio has won Minnesota's Republican caucuses.



The Florida senator chipped away at Donald Trump's sizable lead in the march to the GOP presidential nomination by landing the largest share of Minnesota's delegates Tuesday. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz was vying for second place.



Minnesota was one of 12 states holding presidential votes on the day dubbed Super Tuesday.



Minnesota has 38 delegates, but Rubio won't claim them all. The state's caucus system awards them proportionally based on each candidate's share of the vote.



Rubio was the only Republican to visit Minnesota this year ahead of Tuesday's vote.
