So you win the state and the loser ends up more delegates, really. This is disgusting and disturbing.

Your comment makes close to no sense. It must be getting more and more difficult for you to come up with new ways to defend Slick Teddy.
“A new party will rise from the ashes of the self-immolating GOP and will become a big force in national politics, and what’s left of the GOP will wither and die.”
According to the papers, the HMFIC of the Colorado GOPe has gone into hiding.
The number of electors in each state is equal to the number of members of Congress to which the state is entitled, while the Twenty-third Amendment grants the District of Columbia the same number of electors as the least populous state, currently three. Therefore, in total, there are currently 538 electors, corresponding to the 435 members of the House of Representatives and 100 senators, plus the three additional electors from the District of Columbia.
That's one for each congressman, and ONE for each senator.
I just looked at some of your prior postings- you have some disturbing problems, and I am praying for you.
Maybe you can explain Huckabee’s reason for staying in the 2008 race, long after he had any hope of winning?
Hmmm...seems like we have two candidates like that.
(no one was disenfranchised)
Trump is inept? He has built a billion dollar empire, and you call that inept? Lord - I’d love to be that inept. Ted has no clue except to cheat, lie, and steal - he’s a career p;politician, and a sleazy lawyer. The only thing he is building is hate from the American people.

Mess with the voters spoken voices (by their votes) and the bite in the a-- will be huge!
I think it’s because they know two things:
1. It exposes trumps lack of effort and preparation.
2. It seems to be working. There are enough ignorant people out there and plenty of support in the media to propogate the narrative.
It’s like the BS in Iowa where trump lost and opened a two pronged lie offensive. It worked to slow the Cruz momentum and hide trumps lack of campaign skills.
Being good at one thing does not make you good at another.
Trump has relied on free tv time and big rallies without bothering to learn how the states assign delegates.
That is just a fact.
How about the delegates from Arizona where Trump won by 2 to 1 over Cruz yet all the delegates from Arizona are Cruz operatives? Colorado is a complete fiasco as is Wyoming, the party insiders completely locked out the voters. And so on and so on. Yet we see Cruz making speeches celebrating these “victories”, he claimed “11 in a row” between Arizona and Wyoming. He has pushed this too far. And people have finally caught on. Given his plummeting poll numbers... after this election, he won't be able to win dog catcher unless the GOPe ordains it.
Teddy is a LOSER. Teddy Bares will wake up and find the truth some day, but by then, President Trump will be building a wall and Teddy will be back to representing another Chinese Tire company!
And, you assume that Trump wasn’t aware of how delegates are allocated? Now, let’s breakdown what you said - just because someone is good at one thing doesn’t mean they are good at another. This is true, and it’s also true for Cruz - he might be as good lawyer, but, he’d be a lousy president. Being in the Senate doesn’t prepare one for the presidency - just ask Obama. I think Trump chose not to spend money in those rigged states - it would have been like flushing it down the drain - he knew what was coming, and allowed it to happen to expose just how corrupt lying Ted is.
I agree that it is the GOPe running these elections/caucuses. They always have and anybody paying attention in the last generation or two knows it.
I really don’t blame Cruz for taking advantage of the system. Had Trump done the same...I wouldn’t blame him either.
As a side note...the caucus system baffles me. But a lot of states like it. That is how those states roll, I guess.
“the system I corrupt”
I agree with this part of your post...the rest is garbage.
But I say that in a kind and respectful way.’)
Thank you...I was going to post the same question.
“So you win Florida with 45.7% of the vote and you end up with 100% of the delegates. This is disgusting and disturbing.”
So you win the general election with 45.7% of the vote and you end up with 100% of the country. That is disgusting and disturbing.
“There is no obligation an any state to hold popular votes in primary elections for President.”
In other words, unelected party bosses are a better option?
MAybe you can explain why you posted a really dumb question. Oh wait look who you slavishly back to the point of embarrassment.
