UNDATED (WHBL) -- Senators Ted Cruz and Bernie Sanders have won the Wisconsin primary.
Senator Cruz was declared the winner by both Fox and NBC News. Cruz knocked off current national Republican frontrunner Donald Trump and Ohio Governor John Kasich.
Major networks and other media outlets projected Bernie Sanders to defeat former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Supporters of Cruz hope this continues their push to stop Trump and force a contested Republican presidential convention in July. At a celebration in Milwaukee, Cruz said he is now more convinced that he will get 1,237 delegates needed to win GOP nomination. Cruz is calling on fellow Republicans to get behind him and urging Kasich to give up his campaign.
Meanwhile, Sanders entered the Badger State on a winning streak, and with this victory Sanders will have collected 6 out of the last 7 primary states.
In Wisconsin, delegates are awarded proportionally so both Sanders and Clinton will add to their overall totals.
The next Democratic primary caucus is Saturday in Wyoming, where Sanders is favored to win.
Both Republicans and Democrats are headed to a primary in New York on April 19th.
