Kansas voters received a lot of attention from the presidential candidates this campaign. And lines at the caucus sites were huge.

Donald Trump follows with 24.4 percent; Marco Rubio trails with 14.8 percent and John Kasich follows at 8.9 percent.

Very early Kentucky returns showed Trump and Cruz virtually tied.

Kansas voters gathered to caucus Saturday for the Republican and Democratic candidates for president, and long lines marked the occasion as interest in the nomination campaigns nears that of the historic 2008 election. This year, the GOP printed 60,000 ballots (compared to 30,000 in 2012) and had to go to a print shop today to get more, CNN reports.

Cruz was leading in the rural areas and in the cities.

In recent days, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Rubio each paid a visit to Kansas. On Saturday morning, Trump appeared at a Wichita rally, where he was booed by Cruz supporters, and Cruz appeared at his own rally in the same location just an hour later.

Democrat results will be available soon. The lines at Democratic caucus sites were so long that the venues could not accommodate all the people coming to support a candidate. Voters were forced to "sign in" for their preferred candidate and leave to make room for more people.

Kansas GOP and Dem caucus results will be posted in frequent updates. More Results: Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Nebraska More Politics: Obama Was Gay Prostitute, Dems Killed JFK, says Leading Texas Board of Education Candidate Cruz spoke to reporters after his victory speech.

"I think what we saw in Kansas was a real manifestation of a shift," Cruz said, noting that Kansas, Maine and CPAC are very different groups of voters. "Now is the time for us to come together."

Cruz said the results of Saturday show that people fear a Trump nomination, which would be a disaster.

"We have beaten Donald not once, not twice but seven times now," Cruz said, noting that he is adding to his delegate numbers.

Cruz said he will compete "vigorously" in Florida to try to knock Rubio out. To this point, Rubio has only won the state of Minnesota.

"We are running a national campaign. We are competing in all 50 states," Cruz said.

With the nominations still in question, and the Republican Party in particular locked in an existential battle with Trump, Kansas votes matter more than they have in elections past.

On the Republican side in Kansas, voters gathered at 102 caucus sites based on county. Democrats assembled at 47 sites based on state senate districts.

"There's a lot of attention being given to Kansas. Often times in the calendar of primaries and caucuses, the nomination is already done by now. But in both the Republican and Democratic races ... Kansas does matter," Sen. Anthony Hensley told WIBW TV before the caucuses opened.

Voters in Kansas, Kentucky, Maine and Nebraska caucused on Saturday, while Louisiana held a primary as another chapter in the quests for the Republican and Democratic presidential nominations prepared to fall into the history books.

The GOP victory in Kansas went to Ted Cruz, securing 48 percent of the vote. Cruz also won Maine's GOP caucus.

For the Democrats, Bernie Sanders won Kansas, and at 8:05 p.m. Central time CNN projected Sanders as the victor in Nebraska, too, with 55 percent of the vote.

Hillary Clinton claimed the biggest state of the night, however, winning the Louisiana primary, according to the Associated Press projection, with 71 percent of the vote.

Donald Trump was the projected winner for the GOP in Louisiana, according to AP, with 47.7 percent of the vote to Cruz's 23.7 percent. And Trump was leading Cruz in Kentucky by 9 percentage points as of 9:35 p.m. Eastern.

In these five states, 178 Republican delegates and 155 Democratic delegates are there for the taking.

While Trump and Clinton are leading in the delegate count, the other candidates have shown no signs they are willing to give up on the contest. The Republican establishment has been trying to rally voters around Marco Rubio, in particular, though Trump leads in state victories and delegate totals.

Rubio's results in Kansas were disappointing. If Rubio does not fare well on Saturday, it will be difficult for him to justify staying in the race as an alternative to Trump. Thus far, he's only won Minnesota.

Meanwhile, Cruz won the presidential straw poll taken Saturday by the Conservative Political Action Conference, an organization with about 2,700 young, libertarian leaning activists. More than 40 percent preferred Cruz to Rubio, who took 30 percent, and Trump, who earned just 15 percent. John Kasich came in last with 8 percent.

Cruz, speaking from his Idaho campaign headquarters after his Kansas win, again made the case that he is the best alternative to a Trump nomination.

On the Democratic site, Bernie Sanders expects to come away from Kansas and Nebraska with caucus victories.

KANSAS CAUCUS

Ted Cruz won the Kansas GOP caucus, while Bernie Sanders won for the Democrats. On Saturday morning, Trump appeared at a Wichita rally, where he was booed by Cruz supporters, and Cruz appeared at his own rally in the same location just an hour later. Cruz is leading in the cities and rural areas and with working-class evangelicals.

In 2012, Kansas went for Rick Santorum and in 2008, Mike Huckabee prevailed with Kansas Republicans. A GOP official told CNN turnout was so high that some caucus sites ran out of ballots and more needed to be printed.

Just before 9 p.m. Eastern time, Ted Cruz was declared the GOP victor in the Maine caucus. Trump was favored to win on the momentum he picked up on Super Tuesday and the endorsement from Maine Gov. Paul LePage. Look here for the vote as it's returned. The last polls close at 7 p.m. Eastern time.

CNN projected Bernie Sanders as the winner in the Democratic caucus shortly after 8 p.m. Central time. The predominantly white, Midwestern demographics here are reminiscent of Iowa, where Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders ran a neck-and-neck race that ever-so-narrowly went to Clinton in February.

No doubt. I wonder if John McAffee knows anything about back doors in voting software ?
