At this point my own math says that Donald Trump will get somewhere between 1,240 and 1,330 delegates on the 1st ballot.
This type of polling leads to the latter.
My Open Letter to Ted Cruz

With that letter you have gone way above and beyond, Jeff.
“At this point my own math says that Donald Trump will get somewhere between 1,240 and 1,330 delegates on the 1st ballot.”

Agreed. I have him at 1240-ish BEFORE the uncommitteds, of which there are 146. I expect him to finish with 1300-1320.
And that is with zero delegates from NE, SD, and MT.
You should try and talk some sense into those clinging to a contested convention - those so wedded to Ted they are unable to see reality any longer.
If anyone can break through to them, I believe it is you.
I agree with those that say that is a classy letter, I’ve read it twice!
Thanks for your letter to my Senator Cruz. I too found in him a way forward early on but more recently his actions have disappointed and caused me to throw my support to Donald J. Trump. It is indeed time for Cruz to throw his support to Trump. Whether that happens after Indiana or California is to be seen, or maybe never. Hard feelings are most difficult to shave-off. If indeed Mr. Cruz is the Christian he professes to be he already knows how that can be accomplished and I hope he finds that effort within himself to do so.
I predict Trump will be over 1050 tomorrow night, over 1100 next week after NE and WV, and then RUBIO will release his delegates and enough will declare themselves to be supporting Trump to put him over the top.
This is the only way Rubio can remain relevant, by showing magnanimous unity and encouraging his delegates to declare for Trump. If he waits for CA and NJ, Trump won’t need his delegates at the convention and he will be a footnote there.
Trump will go on to pick up another 200 in NJ and CA and walk into the convention with over 1400 in hand.
I voted for Cruz earlier.You wrote what I believe.
