Yep, the race continues. Cruz has lost 21 states, the entire South, and over 2.1 million votes to Trump. Cruz’s support from his home state,Texas, as their longest running AG and current Senator is remarkably low. Cruz has utilized thousands of workers and volunteers to get out his vote. He & his SuperPacs have spent likely 30X more than Trump on ads. Trump has utilized little or no ground game to get out the vote. People, entirely on their own accord - vote for Trump.

~~Countdown to 1237 delegates~~
The race is >60% over. Remaining state delegates- 906 are available as hard pledged delegates (97 are free agents.) To be nominated on the 1st round, you must have complied with Rule 40.
Trump must win 59% or at least 541/906 delegates.
Trump won 11 or 12 Majority delegations (Rule 40).
Trump can afford to lose up to 365 future delegates.
Ted must win 90% or at least 813/906 delegates.
Ted must win 4 more Majority state delegations (Rule 40).
Ted can give up no more than 93 future delegates.
Ted Cruz remains only to spoil Donald Trump’s win of 1237.
He prays that Bush & co. will work a deal for him in Cleveland.
If Trump doesn’t get 1237 then he doesn’t win...
It would be nice for the REPUBLICAN nominee to have actually been elected by Republicans... As is stands now, it’s been an easy road for Trump since he’s had the benefit of Democrats & Independents voting for him in open states...
Hopefully, he won’t make it to 1237 and the STATE delegates can correct this BS...
Hillary will beat Trump in a head-to-head election...
People want someone who will change DC and fight. With the help of bluster, name ID, 2 billion in free media 40% have latched on to Trump. Its a joke to anyone who has followed politics because they know Trump is a progressive, liberal, big government, crony capitalist, pro abortion, Democrat donor, Soros business partner who supported TARP, stimulus and single payer. Trump is like all the Rinos that have sold us out. No core, no values, no principles, is liberal on social issues, wants to cut the deal and has a pathetic desire that people are “nice to him”. That is the profile of a sellout Rino.
Read Art of the Deal and you’ll realize their reality TV star idol will sell them out in a heartbeat. I laugh how the Trumpbots think they can trust a man who has ripped off business partners, bullies citizens with eminent domain, used bankruptcy laws to rip off multiple banks and is on his third trophy wife. So many are projecting legit frustration into a fraud, flawed man. Frustrating thing is with Cruz we have the real McCoy who would change DC.
