-—or they’d have been banned, as not supporting Trump or Cruz, whomever wins.

and by the way, I’ve seen dozens of posts from people who have said they would never vote Trump or Cruz (usually the former). Not sure if they were banned (but I don’t think they were), because I am not good at remembering names in real life, much less avatar names.

and by the way, I would never support anyone who did not win the majority of the popular primary vote. Lets just put it that way. I won’t support any monkey shines or shenanigans. You can ban me for that if you like.

As I recall they looked pretty happy on March 15, when Trump won all but OH, so don’t read too much into that yet.

Is the threshold for delegates 40% or 50%? If this holds up would Trump still get delegates?

I don’t trust exit polls.

When I voted in Illinois, there was a guy standing outside the polling place with a clipboard. I avoided him when I voted.

Wife went about an hour later, and said the guy got her on the way out. Asked who she voted for, and she said Trump. He asked her LOUD enough for others to hear (some were standing around ready to answer his questions), something akin to “given Trump’s view towards women and the violence that occurs at his rallies, will you still support Trump in the primary?”

This was meant to shame my wife, and to put anyone on notice around the guy, that if they mentioned Trump, they too would be shamed.

She walked away from the guy, but he continued on, asking her loaded questions for about 20’, to which she did not reply.

As she left the lot, she felt like running his ass over.

Here in Illinois, THAT is exit polling. It’s meant not to actually take a poll, but to influence voters going into the polling place, and to report smarmy numbers to suppress the vote on the afternoon news.

You can’t campaign within 50’ of a polling place here, but you can “exit poll” right at the door.

If that is true, then Trump wins.

They refer to themselves as "treepers," FWIW.

Don't know why this is allowed out before the polls close, but it was on their Twitter:

Pretty sure (not 100% sure) that those GOP numbers were in relation to Evangelical Voters.

Trump was leading in Independent Voters.

Northern evangies seem to favor Trump but not so much in syrupy accents areas where Trump skunked Cruz everywhere but Texas his homeo state

Republicans cannot mathematically win a general election without a large amount of cross over voters. It’s an impossibility, there are far more registered D’s than R’s in the nation, especially in urban counties.

I don’t believe Cruz, Romney or Ryan could bring in any measurable amount of crossover votes.

With Trump, the GOP sees their worst possible nightmare come true... that a Republican could actually become POTUS and that the house and senate would actually be held accountable for something.

No threshold.

There are nine different races in Wisconsin.

One for the statewide winner - 18 delegates
Eight for three delegates each in the eight CDs.

Depending on the margin, Trump should take somewhere between 3-9 delegates, even if Cruz wins the state. CD 2, 3 ,7 and 8 are the one to look at.

If Trump somehow wins, 1 and 6 will likely also be in play. Cruz should do well in 4, 5. Kasich’s best (and likely only) chance will be in CD2.

Interesting...Trump Could Face Fine for Illegal Electioneering in WI

Donald J. Trump is being investigated by the Wisconsin Government Accountability Board over his visit to a polling place during today’s Wisconsin primary. A Trump supporter who was at the polling place posted a video of the candidate greeting voters outside Waukesha Fire Station #5, shortly before noon on Tuesday.
