To their detriment.

It is not the role of the Republican Party to determine eligibility beyond verifying party affiliation, and as Mr. Trump is a registered Republican in the state of New York, he is eligible to compete in New Hampshire’s presidential primary. We do not support any effort to challenge his filing,” Zona said in a statement.

This type of trickery should make Trumps no third party run null and void.

They would seal their own fate if they did.

This is a hit piece.


“Anybody who has been following election trends in recent years knows that the GOP is the political party that specializes in tilting voting rules to try to shape the outcome. It has done this through adopting dozens of laws toughening voter ID requirements, limiting early voting, demonizing voter registration drives, etc. “

I support Ted Cruz, but this would make me angry. It would be the death of the Republican Party. And deservedly.

Just the fact this title even exists shows the sorry state of the GOP.

Both parties are so fulled will corruption and are really the enemies of the people that they will try to nullify Trump. What most do not realize it is the people who select the candidate, not these ars hats in the party.

Hey, they changed the rules to the Michigan primary AFTER the voting in 2012. They made it a “winner take all” when Rick Santorum came in a close second to favorite son Mitt Romney. IIRC, Santorum had something like 49 delegates stripped from him and handed to Romney.

It’s exactly what I expect. While I have moved a bit from Bush to Rubio as who they will nominate, you’d have to give me some pretty big odds to bet against it.

The Cheap Labor Express will do whatever it takes to keep us from electing anyone who would shut them down.

They own the RNC/GOP, so the party bosses know they must produce the amnesty candidate they have been paid for.

Not only can they, they will. If not look for him to be killed or incapacitated.

In 2012, Rick Santorum had Missouri, Colorado, Iowa, Minnesota, and several other states stolen from him and given to Romney or Paul. Following those losses, (and maybe not anticipating Trump), and the disaster that the Romney campaign turned out to be, the RNC and state committees took action to bind delegate apportionment to the winners.

The article’s claim that the delegates aren’t bound to vote for their candidate is partly true. But then it’s simply up to Trump’s campaign to make sure it picks his delegates well.

Side note: President Reagan ended up losing the GOP nomination in a floor fight back in 1976, because of Super-Delegates. The GOP no longer uses Super-Delegates.
