LAS VEGAS — Donald Trump won the Nevada Republican caucuses by a near-landslide early Wednesday, his third straight victory with high-stakes "Super Tuesday" just days away.
"We weren't expected to win too much and now we're winning, winning, winning," Trump said at his victory rally late Tuesday. "And soon the country is going to start winning, winning, winning."
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio claimed the crucial second-place slot, edging out Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. As of 2:45 a.m. ET, NBC News had allocated 22 of Nevada's 30 delegates — with 12 going to Trump and 5 each for Rubio and Cruz.
