What happens to the Bush NH delegates now that he has dropped out?

The reason it is important is the 8-state rule, where a candidate must win a majority of delegates in at least 8 states before his name can be placed in nomination.

If the 3 Bush delegates are re-allocated to the remaining candidates , given to the winner, or even just not counted, Trump might get another state.
