Report: Trump to create super-PACs to attack Cruz, Kasich

The Hill ^
| July 22, 2016 | Harper Neidig
Donald Trump is reportedly planning on bankrolling super-PACs that would oppose Gov. John Kasich (R-Ohio) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), two of his former primary opponents who snubbed him during the party’s convention this week... Trump signaled such a plan in a speech on Friday morning, the day after the close of
the convention, while blasting Cruz for refusing to endorse him in remarks before the convention Wednesday night...

No Speaking Slots? Ted Cruz and John Kasich Brush Off Trump’s Threat

New York Times ^
| 6/27/2016 | JEREMY W. PETERS
Ted Cruz and John Kasich have a message for Donald J. Trump: They don’t care if they are not invited to speak at his convention. As
Mr. Trump tries to plan a convention that will run as smoothly as possible, he said in an interview with The New York Times last week that he would not invite either Mr. Cruz or Mr. Kasich, both former rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, to speak at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland unless they endorsed him. That is fine, both said on Monday. A spokeswoman for Mr. Cruz, Catherine Frazier, said the...

What will happen to Ted Cruz's and John Kasich's delegates? (And Rubio's)

C BS ^
| May 5, 2016 | Jennifer Pinto
Ted Cruz suspended his campaign but earned 562 delegates along the way, according to CBS News estimates, and Kasich also ended his campaign, having won 152 delegates. Louisiana's
five Rubio delegates back Trump, call for Rubio as VP. What happens to those delegates now? Are they free to support Donald Trump? The state Republican parties set the rules for what's to be done with pledged delegates, and each state has different rules. For example, many states bind their delegates to their presidential candidates for the first convention ballot unless the candidate "releases" their delegates. Other state parties say delegates are...

With the news that Gov. John Kasich (R-OH) will suspend his fruitless campaign for president Wednesday at 5PM it’s worth asking the obvious question: Why now? Kasich
lost every single caucus and primary over the past several months except for his home state of Ohio. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) has more delegates for the nomination than Kasich and he’s been out of the race for weeks. So why stay in as long as he did just to drop out when the race finally comes down to just two candidates? Let’s focus on a few key moments of the past several...

Campaign puts merchandise on sale as John Kasich, Ted Cruz brace for bad night in Indiana

Team Kasich announced a discount on all campaign gear Tuesday afternoon, while Indiana voters are headed to the polls. From
Kasich drink koozies to baby onesies, everything in the store is 15 percent off.... Some speculated the timing of Kasich’s campaign sale is a sign of not-so-good things to come for the Ohio governor’s presidential hopes. Not so, said Team Kasich in a rebuttal Tweet this afternoon. The sale, according to the campaign, is the result of new goods available at the Kasich store because of new goods coming in and thanked reporters for getting the word out.

New California Primary Poll: Trump 41, Cruz 23, Kasich 21

Breitbart ^
| 5/2/2016 | Joel B. Pollak
A new online poll of 1,165 Republicans in California shows businessman Donald Trump leading Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)41 to 23 percent in the California primary. The
result echoes a recent YouGov/CBS poll that showed Trump leading Cruz by 18 points, 49 to 31. However, the Capitol Weekly/Sextant Strategies poll used an odd methodology: Politico reports that it worked by “collecting responses via the Internet from registered Republicans for whom email addresses are included in the California voter file.” (Update: The poll also shows Ohio Gov. John Kasich close behind Cruz, with 21% — far higher than other polls.) The poll,...

“I got cheated!” After Donald Trump received nearly twice the votes of Ted Cruz at Saturday’s Arizona Republican convention, the Texas senator walked away with a significant majority of the delegates from that state, KTAR reported. Cruz
took nearly all the state’s 28 at-large delegates and basically split the 27 selected by congressional district. Former Gov. Jan Brewer, a Trump supporter, was livid as the results were announced, indicating that she’d lost her first election in 35 years. Read more: http://www.bizpacreview.com

Prediction Markets Show Cruz Craters After Deal With Kasich; Fiorina, Pence Not Boosting Him

The data compiled here on Breitbart News comes from PredictIt, a betting market that creates an almost free market interpretation of what might happen in a given political election. The
Texas senator had been above 50 cents— But, after the (Kasich) deal, Cruz has crashed and despite two desperate measures—the announcement of his vice presidential pick Carly Fiorina and the Pence endorsement—has not recovered. Almost instantly after the Pence deal, Trump took a commanding lead over Cruz. While at one point on April 24 the markets had Trump under 40 cents, by midday April 25, the markets—in response to the...

[…] “In Indiana, Trump is positioned to corral all the [state’s 57] delegates, which will be a big prize toward winning the nomination outright,” says Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion. “Clinton and Sanders are more likely to divide the delegate pool, which will do little to
change the narrative on the Democratic side.” (link)

The NBC/WSJ/Marist poll was conducted April 26-28 — so mostly after Trump’s six-consecutive primary victories in Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states, as well as after Cruz and Kasich announced an alliance/truce, whereby Kasich wouldn’t campaign in Indiana to help Cruz (in exchange for Cruz not campaigning in Oregon and New Mexico). But 58
percent of likely Republican primary voters in Indiana say they disapprove of Cruz and Kasich teaming up to beat Trump in the Hoosier State, while 34 percent say they approve of the move. What’s more, only 22 percent consider the Cruz-Kasich alliance a major factor in deciding their...
