When it comes to wrangling individual delegates in preparation for a contested convention, Donald Trump’s campaign has stumbled in state after state.

And then there is New Jersey. Governor Chris Christie’s endorsement has given Trump an organizational and institutional edge in the Garden State, and New Jersey Republicans expect it to pay big dividends both at the polls on June 7 and at the convention in July. On June 7, Trump and the slate of delegates supporting him will appear in advantaged positions on the ballot in 13 of New Jersey’s 21 counties. And his slate of delegates is packed with loyal Christie supporters — state chairmen, local elected officials, Christie’s son, and even Christie himself — meaning that at the convention, he will not have to worry too much about those delegates peeling off to support his rivals after the first ballot.

I wonder how much OPP offers the delegates as a bribe?

Paul Ryan Schedules Party Fundraiser at Home of Anti-Trump Super-PAC Donor Billionaire family Joe and Marlene Ricketts, owners of the Chicago Cubs. They have recently given $5,000,000 to “Our Principles PAC“, an organization created exclusively to defeat Donald Trump.

Our Principles PAC is -——>organizing delegates and deploying a number of tactics with a goal of depriving Trump of as many delegates as possible in upcoming contests. OPP will focus on delegate wins, not individual state wins.

It’s not stealing when you win the state with votes, then the delegates should be your supporters.

Trump is STEALING delegates!

If the delegates do not represent the will of the voters then yes he is. The system is broken.
