It’s the delegates. Which, in any competent campaign, consists largely of supporters of the major candidates.

Unless the delegates are hand-picked by the machine. Lots of money to throw around, you know.

Yeah, whatever. They have elections at the local and state conventions. The original poster on this thread could have gotten herself/himself elected as a delegate if Trump had bothered to try to organize people. Is she/he “hand picked” by the machine?
