Ted Cruz won the Wisconsin Republican primary Tuesday, boosting his effort to blunt Donald Trump and moving the party closer to a historic contested convention.
Bernie Sanders, meanwhile, won the Democratic primary, CNN projects, inflicting a tough loss on front-runner Hillary Clinton and racking up his sixth win of the past seven state contests.
Cruz, a Texas senator, set his sights on a comprehensive statewide victory that could net him most -- if not all -- of the Badger State's 42 delegates and bolster his claim to be the only candidate to unite Republican opposition to Trump. With votes still being counted, it is too early to finalize exact calculations on the delegate count.
But the defeat of Trump complicates his drive toward the 1,237 pledged delegates he needs to capture the Republican nomination outright before the convention in Cleveland. It follows a rough week for Trump on the campaign trail that included missteps on abortion and controversial comments on national security.
