No it isn't. You aren't counting the other delegates who rightfully have their say too. Delegates won by other candidates who not being able to see their candidate win have to choose among the remaining contenders. The people they represent count too.
As I said, if a candidate doesn't have a majority then more people voted for someone else than him. Those people have a right to their say.

I reckon that’s fine, it even makes sense. What does not make sense is the RNC swapping out Trump delegates like in CO with delegates who are not loyal to who they are supposed to be loyal with, who they know will not back him on a 2nd ballot.
It also stinks when candidates are making backroom deals to take a delegate committed to one candidate, and wheeling and dealing (or blackmailing, or promising sweet lifetime jobs) to change their commitment to a different candidate after the 1st ballot is cast.
Those things to me stink of Chicago politics, and I know Chicago politics. It stinks.
“Oh it’s the rules” I’ve been hearing. Well, they are changing the rules, during the convention. “The Rules” of politics and government are not meant to help the people, but we all know that. They are meant to keep those in power, in power.
I am still amazed at this day in age, that anyone, anywhere, except a government employee would tout the rules of government as being there to help the populace of America.
