It’s either Trump, or a GOPe approved nominee. Cruz will NEVER get the nomination under any circumstance. I Totally AGREE

Here are some facts that seem to me to be applicable:

There are 2472 delegates to the GOP Convention.

57% of these or something over 1400 are free to vote however they like after the 1st ballot.

Question: How many of these delegates do you believe are controlled by the GOPe?

Interesting.

So 43% of the delegates ARE required to vote for their candidate after the first round. I have not heard that. Source?

And of those 57% of the delegates, what percentage are candidate loyalists who were picked by their candidate and what percentage are GOPe loyalists who were picked by their local parties?
