any debates left. I haven’t watched the last 3 but with just a few guys on stage it could be interesting.

...[Cruz] spoke in terms of probabilities.  He sees a low probability that Trump will have the required number of delegates to win the nomination outright...

I suspect this donor columnist doesn't really believe what he said because he didn't elaborate on the reasons Cruz gave for believing Trump can't get to the 1,237 delegate count.

There's a book called How to Lie with Statistics.  If you combine the knowledge in that book with Ted Cruz's superior acting abilities, you can pitch a good storyline.

The New York Times hires real statisticians, plus on those rare occasions that NYT publishes something positive about Trump, it's likely to be true.

Read their interactive Delegate Counter chart and you'll see Trump's chances are excellent.  Currently, all Trump has to do is maintain an average 42% of votes and he'll go over the top in California.
