Donald Trump won all 114 counties and the city of St. Louis in Missouri’s Republican presidential caucuses on Saturday. Trump earned all of the delegates. Trump received nearly all of the votes in caucuses in this area. All of the delegates and alternates from those counties are bound to Trump since he received more than one half of the votes in those counties.

There were 140 in Livingston and 54 votes in Putnam County—all for Trump. Mercer County had 68 votes for Trump and one for Haley. Caldwell County had 75 votes cast, with Trump receiving 73 of them.
