Cruz will be eliminated after New York; Trump will then say "It's me or Romney." Good luck GOPeThe math is foreboding for Cruz. He has 517 delegates. There are just 769 delegates to be awarded. This means Cruz must win 720 of these 769 remaining delegates to reach the required 1237... meaning the next time 49 delegates are awarded to anyone but Cruz, he is mathematically eliminated from reaching 1237. The battle now goes to New York, worth 95 delegates. Trump is way ahead and will knock Cruz out on April 19th. Even the most wishful thinkers have Cruz giving up 60 delegates and seeing his mathematical chances come to an end. Trump will eliminate Cruz by getting about 80 delegates.
“There are just 769 delegates to be awarded.”
Hey, bright guy, there are 882 delegates left.
Don’t worry, Ted will eventually get the nomination.
It’s a marathon, not a sprint.
