They changed the rules to BIND the 17 statewide delegates to the state popular vote winner, because the RNC made all states do that. That’s also why Colorado cancelled their presidential poll, they didn’t want their delegates locked in. That only helps Trump, if he stays on top in Pennsylvania.

All of PA’s delegates used to be unbound. Reagan himself tried to court them in 1976 by picking a PA Senator as his V.P., but the PA guy was so liberal Mississippi went for Ford instead.

Now at least some will be bound to the statewide winner. So the national GOP changed the rules to make MORE delegates bound in all states, which only helps whoever is winning the popular vote, which has been Trump in most states.

Why isn’t Trump crying about those changes? Oh wait...he only cries when he loses. He’s the biggest sore loserman since Gore...in fact I think Trump may be even worse.

We are not as low information as some think but I thank you for a polite, non condescending reply. If we aren’t careful on FR we may actually find each other likeable. :-)
