I said that I didn't think it was true. I didn't see anything in the source material that CTH produced, that CTH claimed supported that conclusion. I read all of the Ohio GOP rules and the Ohio election statutes.

The most equitable division of delegates on a first ballot, if Kasich drops out, would be proportional allocation - but I think the allocation depends only on the discretion of the Ohio state GOP.

Kasich 46%

Trump 13%

Cruz 13%

All delegates bound on the first round. Might it be that 13% wouldn't be enough to apportion any delegates to Cruz? Meanwhile, if Kasich can get in and stay in, can he give those delegates to Cruz?

In OH, Trump is a lot more popular than the result indicates. I don't know how that would play in the state. The delegate process is impossible, so it's probably all insiders who became delegates.
