"In case of a brokered convention, Rule 40a of the 2016 convention rules states that a candidate must have the support of a majority of the delegates of at least eight states in order to get the nomination."

So it's Trump or Cruz.

How can you support Cruz on a national ticket, when he won less than 20% of the Republican vote in Virginia, Florida, and Ohio?

Never too late to change the rules.

Look for rule 40 to go away before the convention.
