I have been having this discussion with some friends of mine who are in the Trump or Cruz camps, and people have come up with interesting ideas. Here is the question:
If the GOP race goes to a contested convention, and Trump and Cruz cannot be the nominee, who WOULD you support to be the nominee? In other words, who is your second best choice if Trump or Cruz cannot be the nominee?
No one comes to mind based on those I consider likely to emerge.
Can’t say I will not vote but there are a few I definitely will not vote for in November. There are even less I will support with more than a vote.
Jeff Sessions of Alabama....
Trump then Cruz.
Sen. Sessions

Agree. We need someone that has common sense.
Me, but I’m kind of busy, so I guess my mom.
The post is not meant for who you think would be nominated, but who you would support.
For example, I would support Jeff Sessions as a compromise candidate. There have to be others out there that could unite the Trump/Cruz factions on this board.
If a THIRD RATE candidate is selected, I may stay home.
This will be my 13th Presidential election, is that a bad sign??
And the GOPe are perfectly OK with that.
No one I will not vote for anyone but....Donald J. Trump...I will vote for Trump either as a Republican or third party candidate!!! I would never vote for Ted Cruz or any GOP Establishment candidate!!! And...millions of Americans will do exactly as I will do!!! If Trump is denied the GOP nomination....The GOP (E) political party will be destroyed forever!!! Hillary Clinton will become the POTUS with ease!!! Running someone like Romney, McCain, Paul Walker, Kasich Rubio, Cruz, Foirina, etc., is pure insanity!!!
George Deukmejian
I would vote for Kelli Ward and leave ALL others blank.
I second your post.
Completely so.
Cruz
Steve Forbes
Current governor of Texas, Greg Abbott.
Tim Eyman.
Liberals hate him.
Joe Momma
Gary Johnson
I will not vote uniparty just to vote uniparty
It really won’t matter because they will be 100% assured of losing.
