Ted Cruz supporters took all 13 of the delegates up for grabs on Saturday to complete a clean sweep of the state.
But it was not without controversy.
The Cruz camp and GOP establishment leaders strong-armed their way to a sweep by banning Trump delegates and omitting them from the ballots… and listing Cruz delegates TWICE!
The liberal media and GOP establishment will call this “good electioneering.”
One Trump delegate (379) was not listed on the ballot while a Cruz delegate (378) was listed twice.

Let me say this to Cruz and the GOP Elite – you may have won this state by the underhanded procedures and saying “they didn’t know the rules so we eliminated them – fair and square”, which of course is not true. You are manipulating the process. Now Cruz might get the nomination on the second or third ballot and say “look –we have the support of the GOP”. Well that is all you will have as 1/3 of the Trump supporters will remember when you locked out our fellow delegates / voters and you will go down in a blazing defeat against the Democrats. Now you will say it was “all Trump’s fault” - We won’t buy it. So mark this day in history as the day the GOP was so divided they weren’t even able to win the White house, or a majority in the House or Senate.
Political corruption of the highest order. Scruz the GOPe.
This gets more shocking by the day. How any FReeper can still support Cruz is beyond me. Why not just be a Democrat?
It looks like a TYPO.. any entries which have the second 378 darkened will be counted for 379 (one of the Trump candidates for ALTERNATE delegate). If anything, this TYPO may have actually benefitted #379 as some votes actually meant for #378 go to 379.
Not so.
But the list of recommendations that Donald Trump’s campaign put out has several major errors that could cost him delegates, even if supporters follow the campaign’s instructions.
The ballot numbers listed are wrong for five of the 13 delegates Trump recommends voting for, a major problem because the ballot only shows numbers, not names.
Of the five delegate candidates who correspond with the incorrect numbers of the Trump slate, two are unpledged and one will be bound to Trump rival Ted Cruz.
“But it was not without controversy.”
That’s an understatement!
Trump is exposing the GOPee dirty tricks...that cRuz is all too happy to be taking part in.
LOLOL....so says the the previously opused and zotted liblu. Now, there’s a trustworthy opinion. /s
Trump did this to himself.
Trump did this to himself.
and it will only get worse. Many still support Cruz because they refuse to see the reality of who is behind him. I too supported Cruz from the very beginning when he was in the senate floor. I even emailed him congratulating a job well done when he did his Ham and Eggs during his filibuster. Yet something was not right, I wasn’t sure what it was. I had thought “could this been a Kabuki Theater performed right before our eyes?”, yet I refuse to believe it. When he ran, I learned about Heidi, which was a red flag. What topped it is when Ted got the Bushes in his campaign. I then knew he was one of them.
Also many Freepers condemn Obama for sealing his records regarding his birth, yet no cries over Ted’s sealing his records. Very telling indeed. I then realize that the reason the Republicans never did anything about Obama’s eligibility was because they had their own Usurper, and you can guess who?
“Cruz: The truth with a smile.”
“Cruz: The Truth is I Lie With a Smile”
There...I fixed it for you
It’s a steep uphill battle against corruption like in Colorado where the official @cologop actually tweets out; “We did it. #nevertrump”. They made it obvious it was their actual mission.
Lots more on these threads;
Colorado GOP elites are #nevertrump

#nevertrump is more than a simple political statment - it’s a mission statement. And it was executed by the Colorado GOP as a mission statement. That is not we-the people.

It’s time for Trump to make some commercials outing Ted for the liar he is.
The tactics and result proves nevertrump was their actual mission, we-the-people be damned.
No way out of that reality. It’s there for all to see.
Given the GOP tactics I’ll vote for Trump under a 3rd Party candidate. There isn’t much difference between the GOP and the RATs and this election cycle shouts that loud and clear.
