The article quotes two of the delegate candidates as being Trump supporters.

I know of a third, Joe Sacco, running in my congressional district, the 4th.

I’m newly a PA resident. When I got to vote on the 26th, will the candidates’ names even be on the ballot, or just a list of delegates?

If the later, how do I know which support my candidate?

There is a place to vote for your candidate for POTUS.

The winner of the popular vote statewide will have 17 delegates ‘bound’ to them on the first ballot.

But for the rest of the delegates you get a list of names-all considered ‘uncommitted’ with no connection to POTUS candidates mentioned on the ballot.

This is the trick system the party has used to get control of the delegates because the list usually includes elected GOP Establishment officials like US Congressman, State Senators, State Representatives, County Commissioners etc.

Those people usually win the slots by name recognition.

You’ll have to check the media for reporting, call the people yourself, get plugged into your candidate like I am on Cruz’s email list.

I may not vote Cruz or Cruz delegates myself because I do sense a rigging of the system against Trump.

I may vote Trump and then vote for any delegate candidates I can identify as Trump supporters which I have one in my congressional district to vote for.

You vote for up to three candidates in your congressional district.
