The delegates are the voters at the convention.

After the first ballot falls without a winner, which definitely will happen, the delegates are no longer bound.

That was why Cruz was working the locals long before the primary began, establishing a solid relationship in each state.

For anyone that has ever been involved in a presidential election, that is job one.

I meant if he gets the nomination where does he get voters for the general election? So far Cruz’s support has not been translating into actual votes. If it was Trump would not be so far ahead of him at this point.

At this point it is clear Cruz will not be able to get to 1237 and he is just staying in to block Trump from getting the nomination. Voters will remember.
