Isn’t it crazy these fantasies?
Does anyone really do the numbers?
20 states left
If trump wins just half including one or two big ones and he’s over the top
Cruz would have to win 80% of remaining delegates and nearly all the states
Not going to happen
All this chatter from the ruling class is sticking their toe in the water for a contested convention just in case they got very lucky and Trump support collapses
Trump has won 20 of 30 states so far
And is heading into big states that favor him
Just winning 2/3 of the remaining states in almost any combination would do it
Retread; infiltrator from DU; infiltrator from Bernie Sanders; paid GOP-e spy; paid Cruz shill.
...and tag-team ghost account with multiple humans posting under a single ID in rotation.
Trump has a Master's from Hard Knocks (competing in the real world in New York).
I’m going to remind you that your hunch was wrong
14 of the remaining 20 primaries are winner take all
only two are proportional
The rest are winner take most
Trump just keeps at the pace of winning states like he has and it’s over
Easy over
2 out of 3 is his pattern so far and if he keeps that uphe gets 700 more delegates to come
There are 1061 left.....he has 673.....
Trump will get around 1400 is my guess
Does nobody around here work on this but me?
This talk is just Megyn Kelly pillow biting muffled wishful thinking on Xanax and Merlot crap
I tweaked it a little. . .
Well, dear darlin', I highlighted this New York Times article in the midnight Make America Great Again list, which gives a nice chart explaining his likely delegate count:
Rubio’s Exit Leaves Trump With an Open Path to 1,237 Delegates
Hopefully this entity will be gone tomorrow. I think it’s on drugs, too.
Just like Cruz won Texas!
bkmk
I have noticed you have been a wonderful source of info
People are going to look back in a month and go what was that all about....the nonsense fantasy pushed by Levin and Beck and FOX and so on
Nutty
It’s propaganda from people who claim empirical truth guides them
delusional delirious
“No one said that only Trump won delegates but he did win the State! “
Looks to be a definition problem.
when delegates are proportionally distributed, then everyone wins if they receive any delegates at all.
sometimes there is one who wins more delegates than others.
‘Won a State’ in a proportional contest connotes somebody lost. Not true, as the amount of delegates one receives entering a convention does not depend upon winning a state, unless it is a winner-take-all state.
Cruz did not ‘win’ Texas. He just received more delegates than others received.
my, my, why don’t you say how you really feel about things?
and you are saying that without any data whatsoever to support your assertions.
gotta be a lib. they do not need data either.
Whoever gets the most delegates in a proportional State is said to have won the State!
That is how it is done.
Even if it is only by a single delegate.
You can't make up your own definitions.
You are wrong again. Only in a winnertakeall situation is it a win..this is not baseball game where a winner and loser are made.
The delegates dustributed ALL count at the convention.
Whoever wins the most delegates is said to have won the State.
That is the reality of the situation, no matter how much you want to deny it.
AND YOU JUST DONT PAY ATTENTION.
Several folks won delegates. No one person wins a state unless it is a winner take all like Florida.
you just cannot seem to get it through your thick head that getting some of the delegates, or even more than others, means a state win.
That is why when the election results are announced, one of the candidates is said to have won the State!
If the candidate gets more votes then the other guy he wins the State, even if the delegates get divided up.
you can call it whatever you want, but it does not influence the results of people winning as well.
You are just too dense to talk with further on how primaries work.
Must be a Trump supporter, right?
