Missed one of your questions.

He seems to have a sizable lead across the rest of the nation.

Ted may do well in Texas. If he remains close, that may push him over the top. I don’t know if Texas is proportional or not.

It used to most states were winner take all. Now it has changed to proportional. That has lost favor with me.

If a guy comes in a close second for ten states, he could theoretically win one big state and wind up the most delegates.

That doesn’t seem right to me. If you win ten elections to one, that seems to be a bigger deal than simple majority of delegates.

i think the MIXING is more unfair. Some states are proportionate and some aren’t in the generals, no?

How can that be constitutional?

I’d like to know how many dem and how many repub states are proportional. Bet there’s more dem.

This is what i get for chatting on a slow night at work.

I just poured diet coke on my pancakes :)

at least i didn’t drink the syrup!

Trump will win N.Y. which has a vast number of delegate and that state is NOT proportional.

Trump will probably win Florida, which also has a vast number of delegate and I don't believe that that state is proportional, either.

You do know why that is the case these days?It probably came about when RR stunned the establishment and won the the 80 nomination.The elite got together(uniparty) and said never again.
