Delegates are appointed to vote for you so that small states have a voice...

I think you are confusing electoral votes with constitutional delegates whose names are listed under each presidential candidate's on the general election ballots. The Constitution controls the number of electoral votes, the state parties control the number of delegates and how they are divvied up. These delegates have nothing to do with a republican form of government, but everything to do with the establishment parties controlling election outcomes.

You have the DNS problem, it sound like.

Look at the article on the front page.

Lou Dobbs says exit polling showing 40% of self identified moderate republicans going Trump....
If that’s True it’s a turnout battle.


Thanks for posting that.

Fact Trump has no event planned tonight, seems like pretty strong evidence he doesn’t expect a win.

I didn’t see anything like that. Was it a post that got pulled?

permit me to correct my error...

I think you are confusing constitutional electoral votes with political party delegates. It is the constitutional electorates whose names are listed under each presidential candidate’s on the general election ballots. The Constitution controls the number of electoral votes to make the states equal no matter the number of their population, the state parties control the number of delegates and how they are divvied up. These political party delegates have nothing to do with a republican form of government, but everything to do with the establishment parties controlling election outcomes.

MSNBC gives it away every time who is winning the exit polls and that is Cruz. Hopefully, the exit polls are wrong.

“In a head-to-head matchup between Trump and Cruz — with Kasich voters re-allocated to their second choices — the Manhattan real-estate mogul earned 46 percent support, compared with 37 percent for Cruz

http://www.quinnipiac.edu/news-and-events/quinnipiac-university-poll/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2333

Note that I am not a believer in polls but I do NOT believe Kasich’s delegates will sweep to Cruz.

There are other data points that support Trump receiving a boost if Kasich were to drop out.

Trump had a long weekend and yesterday in WI...If he wins tonight, I would imagine he willl speak from his home in NY...I am also guessing he is spending some time with his son and new grandchild, and good for him!!

If Cruz wins, it definitely affects the big picture

Bull. This is the same nonsense we heard after Iowa, that Cruz winning there would affect him in New Hampshire and South Carolina, and it didn't, at all.

No one voting in New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware or any other state later this month gives a damn about what Wisconsin thinks. The idea that there's anyone out there thinking "God, I just can't decide between Trump and Cruz, better wait to see what super-important Wisconsin says" is goofy.

FWIW, Twitter Trump-haters pretty quiet. Saw one NRO exit poll about people favoring a more aggressive foreign policy, but that’s about it.

That tells me they are hearing Trump is doing pretty well. If Trump was getting killed, the little Twitterbot Trumphaters would be having an orgasm.
