If we’re ultra-conservative w/ proportional contests, and assume Trump loses a number of states that he currently leads, he still gets ~1,300…

I dont see where Cruz can win east. Maybe Rhode Island or Delaware with funny turnout.
Nonsense. California has delegates by district.
tell him to get the crow bar out and start setting up a mad ground game in psycho CA. THAT’S a place worth spending!!
he’ll take NY.
He takes CA and this thing is over!!
Any CA people getting a feel out there?
I just made a CA post? what do you mean by districts?
the real problem is Trump is not attracting over 50% in many of these states.
Means most do not want him, although the same could be said of all.
It would be so much better if there was a true mandate instead of ‘the best we could get’
Cruz needs to get out , but the GOPe won’t let him ...funny how Cruz took the banking capital of the South in NC ...quite telling
If Cruz is really smart, at some point he will realize Trump will arrive in Cleveland with more delegates, and he will defer to the opinion of the voters and keep the party whole.
Hello concern troll. Welcome to FR.
the real problem is Trump is not attracting over 50% in many of these states.
Agree.
Trump will win about 200 delegates putting him near 700 after tonight. He’s on his way.
Charlotte is NC banking capital and Trump won there. Cruz took Wake county the capital where long term idiots I mean government workers and liberal transplants live.
Go to the link and see how he has Trump getting to 1300. He has Trump getting all 172 delegates.
In CA?
I’ve been going over the numbers this evening.
Kasich and Rubio were both mathematically eliminated from obtaining a pre convention 1237 delegates today.
Both need close to 110% of the remaining delegates to meet that stipulation. Won states is another issue they couldn’t meet.
In rough numbers, after today... (not solid will vary a bit)
Cruz needs about 85% of remaining delegates.
Trump needs about 52.5% of remaining delegates.
I don’t think Cruz can reach the 8 state minimum at this point.
Trump already has.
Not getting Ohio is a major blow for Trump (as I stated this morning) but the fact that Rubio dropped out and Cruz did so poorly tonight is the saving grace.
thanks. I will now
Nonsense. Getting in the 40's in a four man race is better than getting 50's in a two man race.
Nope, Democrats and Republicans are working together to share votes to knock Trump out. That’s what happened in Ohio
