And how many citizens of Wyoming got to vote for Ted Cruz in this landslide?

Right, none. Shame!!

Wyoming is another closed, rigged contest decided by the state’s GOP Elite, who had already pre-decided that Cruz would win. In other words, another Colorado fiasco, another subversion of the democratic process.

This seems the only way Cruz can win a state. Why are you bragging proudly about this? You consider yourself a conservative??

Cruz has won a whopping THREE primaries outside his home state. Only the hysterical anti Trump campaign is holding up his campaign. In any other year he would have dropped out long ago. It’s about winning state that matter and unfortunately for Ted he isn’t doing it. Another humiliating 0 for 5 Super Tuesday is on the horizon so let Cruzers pump this inconsequentially caucus “win”.

Wait, what?

Wyoming has been a caucus state for, well, as long as I can remember anyway. They’ve been caucusing since February. This result from the state convention is completely consistent with the precinct and county caucuses.

All of a sudden caucuses are problematic? It’s not exactly a new way of selecting delegates to the Republican convention. Really, I don’t mean to pick a fight, but is there something wrong with the caucus system, or just this one in particular?

Oh, stop lying already! Did you even read the article?

The Cruz campaign's grassroots organization was front and center here, with printed slates of the 14 recommended Cruz delegates on each table, a hospitality room, a table full of literature staffed by local volunteers and yellow "TED CRUZ Cruzin Cowboys" balloons placed around the convention room. Attendees here said the campaign has been in touch with them early and often via phone, and they have noticed a big social media push.

By comparison, the Trump campaign distributed a printed slate with six recommended delegates. The Trump campaign had a table with some snacks and literature, staffed by two out-of-town Trump volunteers.

"You come in a week before the convention and it won't be as effective," said Tim Stubson, one of several congressional candidates walking the halls at the Parkway Plaza Hotel and Convention Centre.

Same thing happened yesterday in Indiana but it can’t be made official till May 3. Makes no difference if Trump wins the state the party bosses got together and gave Cruz 56 delegates to 1 one Trump. Talk about disfranchising the voter. Lord almighty. Welcome to the Social Republic of Indiana, where the GOPe rules. The difference in Cruz and Trump is simple. Cruz can’t win anything without help from the GOP. Trump wins with the voters. Big difference. That’s why if the election is rigged for Cruz on the 2nd ballot and he gets the nomination after Trump has more delegates going in and millions more votes Trump supporters will sit out the election. Makes no difference anyway. Cruz has no chance on earth of beating Clinton. Only one that does is Trump and the GOP would rather see Hillary Clinton win than Trump. The country will go to hell but their rackets are safe for a few more years.

All of them.

This is what Wyoming has decided as a State on how to hold it's primary.

There are several decisions on why but the final decision is made in Wyoming.

Maybe because of it's large size and sparse population maybe they feel this is the best fit.
