GOPe damage control BS, that's all this sort of diversionary trash about the percentage of votes not matching the percentage of delegates is.

Delegates were awarded in proportion to the votes cast save for those the Republican GOPe, in their great wisdom, added to the total the overall victor in the popular vote received.

IOW, it was all clear and directly related to the votes cast with a bonus for the overall winner.

Unfortunately for Snake Cruz, he doesn't come out as the overall winner much and never will.

Same thing I said in the last thread you posted this GOPe party line damage control BS in.

is that the talking point you have been given as you keep repeating it?
Why not say it is the rules bla bla and then ignore how the establishment makes the rules to suit what they want and to hell with us voters.

In Colorado Cruz got 100% of the delegates with 0% of the voters. Not too hard to comprehend the problem.

The Colorado establishment machine has given Trump a nuclear bomb to use - and he will use it.

Thats because he won the delegates by winning the states. Not rocket science.

He won those delegates because he won the voter, unlike cruz who wins delegates with no voters voting and he celebrates a great victory

You must be paid to defend this crap or you are part of the elitist establishment.

I'd like to know why Trump is not working harder.

He fills 12,000 seats stadiums and thinks he doesn't have to do the work to secure the delegates he needs. So when Cruz does the work, Trump automatically calls foul.

I really expected more out of Trump's brain.

Cruz has 100% from states that don't allow their people to vote.

That's BS. Watch how you total since you seem to include all 14 or so other candidates against Trump. Trump has over two million voters than Cruz. Idiot.
