Is this writer even aware that primaries continue into June, including California with 172 delegates? Please tell me the rest of the posters on this thread know this “minor” detail.
I was wondering about that, too.
The author thinks the primaries are over by the end of May.
There are a handful of states on June 7th, including delegate rich California and New Jersey.
Here’s the excerpt on June:
“There are 303 delegates up for grab on June 7, 2016. They are in California (172), Montana (27), New Jersey (51), New Mexico 24, and South Dakota (29).
The remaining 303 delegates are awarded on June 7th. Trump needs 273 of them. The states of Montana and South Dakota are winner-take-all for a total of 56 delegates. Cruz has won every demographically similar state to those two by large amounts this election season. He should win both of those states. If he does, that leaves 246 delegates on June 7th. Even if Trump won every single remaining delegate he could not get to 1237. Due to no chance of winning Montana and South Dakota, Trump is effectively eliminated at the end May.”
