Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has won the Idaho Republican presidential primary, according to three television networks.

Cruz, who visited Idaho on Saturday following his wins in Maine and Kansas, wooed the state’s conservative voters with his stances on hot-button issues like federally controlled lands and Second Amendment rights. State Sen. Russ Fulcher, State Treasurer Ron Crane and Rep. Raul Labrador have endorsed him.


Florida Sen. Marco Rubio visited the state three times and was endorsed by U.S. Sen. Jim Risch, while front-runner Donald Trump never made the trip — instead declaring his love of Idaho potatoes from afar.

Idaho awards its 32 Republican delegates proportionately.
