I heard this GOPe guy recommending delegates get rooms for more than a week because of a coming brokered convention.
If someone removes the winner for a GOPe shill, then there goes what little there was left of the Republican Party IMO.

To be fair, I believe Hugh Hewitt has predicted brokered conventions in past cycles. Maybe it’s wishful thinking by a political junkie. The conventions are way too boring anymore. I’m leaning Trump, but would still relish an old fashioned duke em out convention instead of the scripted commercials that they’ve become

Republicans have superdelegates, too.

“For Republicans, there are generally 3 unpledged delegates in each state, consisting of the state chairman and two RNC committee members.

“A common criticism is that unpledged delegates could potentially swing the results to nominate a candidate that did not receive the majority of votes during the primaries.”

I wonder how many pledged delegates Trump will have to have before the superdelegates are unable to decide the outcome.
