Here is the reason Trump's campaign sucks. There are 51 delegates in NJ and trump has to be considered the favorite. I'm sure they will get the 51, but waiting until the last second often doesn't bode well.

So far in New Jersey, Cruz has filed 45 delegates, Trump 24 and Kasich 18. Filing closes tomorrow at 4 pm.

Kasich just doesn't have the manpower to find enough delegates (sad, but true). You have to be able to figure out, more or less, whether a delegate is likely to support you even when no longer bound to do so. Even Cruz, with his highly praised ground game, isn't there yet according to your count (which I trust but have not checked). There is no excuse for Trump not to have filed at least close to a full slate of delegates in NJ; that's practically his home territory, and he has to have enough supporters that he could have identified.

Well NJ is a WTA state that looks to be compelled to vote for Trump when he gets his 1,237 and some more.

51 total delegates - 10 base at-large / 36 re: 12 congressional districts / 3 party / 2 bonus

Your posts here on freerepublic suck... It is quite obvious you are a blindly devoted Cruz supporter and everyone else who thinks differently is stupid.
