Green Papers is wrong on that, ie misprint.

Actual rule says >50% statewide or only candidate >20% then WTA. Otherwise, proportional between those >20%.

Yeah, looks like you are right. Too good to be true, I guess. Greepapers really needs to correct that. But I’ll bet I gave some Trump supporters a heart attack...

It still looks like Cruz and Trump will end up pretty close on delegates for the night. Assuming nothing changes in Idaho, right now Trump would have 63 delegates and Cruz 51. I assume Cruz will get more delegates than Trump in Hawaii, so there will probably be a difference of less than 10 delegates for the day by the time the night is over.

I also had calculated that Trump needed to get between 55-60% of the delegates to keep on track to win 1237. That would be between 82-90 delegates. Looks like he will be well short of that. Of course if he wins Florida and/or Ohio next week, he can make up the difference.
