I sure hope that Cruz will continue to waste his time and resources in NY.
95 delegates are on the line in New York
They’re awarded based on finishes in each of the state’s 27 congressional districts.
“We’ve got 27 mini contests. There’s a mini contest in [Congressman] Higgins’ district. There’s a mini contest in [Congressman] Collins’ district. And whoever wins there is going to get more delegates,” Hardwick explained.
Expect Donald Trump to continue his headline grabbing approach, according to Carl Calabrese, a Republican strategist.
He says the billionaire businessman has tapped into something that’s working, and getting him a lot of free media attention.
“He’s a master at it. He really is,” said Calabrese, who says he’s leaning toward Cruz and Kasich. “The man understands the connection between modern political campaigns and the modern reality TV culture. He understands what it takes to stay on center stage and to keep people coming back to watch the next episode of the show so to speak.”
Texas senator Ted Cruz, who called his Wisconsin win a “turning point,” is right on Trump’s heels, building an impressive delegate count. Although, Trump continues to dominate the delegate race.
Then, there’s Ohio governor John Kasich, who’s preventing the one on one contest between Trump and Cruz, and possibly stopping a first ballot nomination at the GOP party’s July convention in Cleveland.
“He’s looking for a contested convention. An open convention. A brokered convention. I think he does well in a brokered convention,” said Hardwick, a Kasich supporter.
The campaign now enters a stretch of states in the Northeast that favors Trump, including his home state of New York.
Cruz is going to spend millions in New York for a 3rd place finish and no delegates
Luz with Cruz
This is great!
Eh, Cruz isn't going to win NY. All he has to do is help keep Trump under 50% so that he won't get all the delegates.
It's actually worth spending a lot of money there because if Trump is kept under 50%, that will practically guarantee a contested convention - one in which Trump won't win.
So if your a Trumpster, you really should at least understand the stakes and why Cruz, Kasich and lots of SuperPAC money will pour into NY. It is not a waste of resources at all, actually it's quite critical.
He should be campaigning in California. He is wasting his time in NY.
His point in being there is to keep Trump stationary in NY by hugging his tail....while his ground crew works the delegates in the states Trump “cancelled” his events in....LOLOL.....Trump took the bait....and is hooked...lololol
Cruz is not eligible to be president! bookmark this.
Cruz will probably speak to a packed crowd at Mickey Dee’s.
Gosh, Albany is as liberal as NYC, maybe more so.
