Folks the convention for the Republican Party settles what happens if one does not get enough delegates. Everyone knows that. What you don’t know is the Democrat party uses those Super-delegates you hear so much about to handle the same thing for their party. This has been going on for many years.
So theoretically, Sanders could win enough delegates but not get the nod because the Supers deal him out.
See how both parties have the power/ability to do what they want. The Repubs have a vote, if one does not get the number of delegates, then the deals start. Another guy’s delegates on the second round may change his votes to the leader or not etc etc. It really is interesting to watch when there is arguing.
Don’t worry - if Trump gets the most delegates from the first vote, on the second vote the delegates will change to Trump I have no doubt. All this hoopla is keeping the whole country interested in this election and that is what this is all about.
Republicans have no such rule. Cruz is simply stating the process as it stands now. Calling him names for doing so is ridiculous.
