TedCruz.com Has Sad Message for Ted Cruz

The 2016 race may have started in a fairly tech-ish way—with a tweet, that is—but an Internet gaffe soon followed. It seems official candidate Ted Cruz did not register the TedCruz.com domain, and it's now being used to troll him. The black page simply instructs visitors to "Support President Obama. Immigration reform now!" Its only other feature: sharing tools and a pop-under ad that we're guessing is not generating revenue for candidate Cruz.

And that's not all. Mashable reports TedCruzForAmerica.com redirects to HealthCare.gov. That was registered just today, while TedCruz.com was registered in April 2004 and last updated in April 2014. MSNBC resurfaces a 2014 Mother Jones article that noted an Arizona lawyer of the same name owns the site. So what is Cruz using for his campaign right now? TedCruz.org. Should you need a refresher, here's how Cruz feels about Obama and immigration reform. (More Ted Cruz stories.)
