Cruz will probably have the biggest gap to fill.
Donald’s problem will be that he has alienated everyone else but his hardcore followers with his behavior.
However, for alienating a whole mess of people, he seems to have a majority of delegates, and counting actual votes, is literally millions ahead of second place, so, there is evidence of a modicum of support out there.
As a theatre, the southeast was R.Cruz' strength, but he could not garner sufficient support, was a blow out instead.
Now comes the northeast, and currently on paper it does not bode well for the sitting senator.
The west coast is said to be in play by some, however I remain skeptical that R. Cruz pulls a majority of votes his way.
So, as much as D. Trump generates all this hatred, he sure gets those votes, no?
Oh, just to be on the record, I have no problem voting for R. Cruz should he become the nominee.
I simply would like the one who gets the most votes in the primaries (what is the definition of primary elections, anyways?)to get a shot, as it is that person that most have chosen as their representative for high office, not delegates who are sworn to support the individual, but wish to jump ship and vote their choice instead.
