This isn’t fair. You are using real math instead of Cruz/Core math.

I’m confused as to how this closed the gap. If Ted won 40 for the day and Trump won 58 for the day...didn’t Trump’s lead increase by 18?

Also, If Ted needed to win ~85% of remaining delegates, and every time he doesn’t get 85%, doesn’t the percent go up for the next primary? For instance, from here on out, would he not have to win 86%...and so forth. Is this logic wrong?

The only gap closed is the 8-state Rule 40. Utah counts for Cruz, and I don’t think he has the eight needed yet to even be on the first ballot. This is more a desperate hanging on rather than closing the gap.

Ain’t that the truth. I remember a time when number where a fact...now, I guess the numbers can be whatever you want them to be. i.e(he lost by 100, but really he won because I said so:)
