Still reeling after Sen. Ted Cruz’s delegate sweep in Colorado, voters are waking up to the fact that delegates are the ones who will determine the Republican nominee and that the primaries and caucuses are just for show. What’s more, there might just be another Colorado on the horizon, where voters will get no say at all.
Up next is the state of Wyoming, a state which, along with Colorado and North Dakota, has chosen to not hold a nominating contest this year, which means no primary or caucus vote. Instead, Republican voters there will be represented by county delegates at a convention April 14-16. They will select the statewide delegates who will represent Wyoming at the Republican National Convention in July in Cleveland.
Wyoming holds 29 delegates: 14 will be elected at the convention and 12 have already been selected at county conventions — nine of which are Cruz supporters. One delegate went to Sen. Marco Rubio, one went to Donald Trump, and one is uncommitted. The remaining three delegates slots automatically go to members of the state GOP.
After the results in Colorado, a decision made last August when the state party there decided voters would not weigh in, one can expect Trump and his team to take Wyoming seriously and put forth a strong effort to make sure their supporters are selected to the remaining 14 slots at the Wyoming convention.
Wyoming is the final state to opt not to hold a nominating contest. Following the Cowboy State are states such as Delaware, Arizona and Virginia, which will hold their state conventions on April 30 — following their state’s caucuses or primaries. Most of the other states have gone more as expected.

Loans for business are paid back with money. Bribes by Special interests are paid back with selling out the people.
“Bribes by Special interests are paid back with selling out the people.”
And you have evidence for your claim?
Yes, Our Government is proof.
And you have evidence for your claim?
How about "Everything I've seen with my own eyes for the last 40 years"?
So, you’ve got proof Cruz is not paying back his loans?
You’ve seen that with with your own eyes?
So, you’ve got proof Cruz is not paying back his loans?
Yes, his legislation to to strip policing Currency manipulation in TPP, Working with Ryan to push TPP and voting for TPA and Corker. Hes a multimillionaire on a decades long govt salary.
I also see where you switched from Bribes to Loans.
I didn’t “switch” anything.
I maintained my accuracy.
Unless you can prove he is not repaying those loans, your charge remains speculation and slander.
Yes you switched to loans from the graft that made him a multimillionaire. The issue was graft vs loans. Not loans in isolation.
You’ve proven graft now?
You disputing our government is corrupt? Really?
I’m disputing that you have any evidence of corruption or graft on the part of Ted Cruz.
Put up or shut up!
Really, You operate in a vacuum? How dd he become a multimillionaire on a govt salary last couple decades?
You have no evidence of anything.
You have no insight into the Cruz family income or investments.
The loans are declared and accounted for.
You have NOTHING.
So you cannot explain how he got so rich on a Government salary. You are dismissed.
How rich?
Got a number?
Don’t tell me Donald would have complained if Cruz had been him and CO went totally Donald. I know he wouldn’t have because Cruz used the delegate rules in CO the way Donald has used the “bankruptcy laws of the United States” - ruthlessly to his personal advantage, creditors (opponents) be damned.
