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.
Given the split you posted, I would say an equitable distribution if kasich dropped out would be half to Cruz and half to Trump. But I think the way the system works is smokey back rooms, and the delegates split based on whatever machination happens out of public view.
Those numbers look a lil off for Ohio

Do we want to be part of a political party that has such crooked rules?
The current system in both party's seem to violate basic fairness and common sense, perhaps there was once a reason for this but now its just arcane, corrupt and not serving the voters.
If the primary process is so private why do they insist on running commercials and jamming my email box full of spam?
It seems as though the parties want it both ways - the mandate of the general public via the voting and the choice of the oligarchs via the delegates.
All I know is I left the party after cromnibus and nothing I have seen has made me regret that decision.
I also know that if the nomination is a bogus. I'll write Trump in as I don't think a establishment candidate is going to beat Hillary anyhow.
I'm done with the GOPeRNC we need a new party this one has been crashed. We've been sold a bill of good in the false choice that we must organize society around the state or around business.
Its time to organize society around the one social unit that matters the most to greatest number of people, One that may actually care about you as an individual - the American family.
