Ah yes, the democrat mantra that popular vote should be the only thing that counts. Now where have we heard that before. Oh yes, it was the democrats trying to scrap another delegate / representative based system call the electoral college.

Republicans and conservatives rejected the idea back then as well.

There was no vote in Nevada, there was no vote in Iowa. Those are caucus States. Basically they were straw polls, completely non binding. In Iowa, like Nevada you went to the caucus, you started your preference, on a piece of paper and then delegates were awarded.

Same thing happened in Colorado, except that they didn't bother with the non-binding Straw Poll.

At some point you need to recognize that your candidates campaign sucks. Nothing else.

BTW I will give you a precursor to the next place Trumps sucky campaign will show itself. California. He needs to identify 6 delegates in all 53 CDs or He gets no delegates in those CDs. Started last week. Cruz started in November and just finished. So when Trump starts whining about California being unfair, do what most of us do, ignore him.
