Sorry, There is zero reason to have all these convoluted voting mechanisms other than to game the system. I know it, and you, if you’re honest, know it too. Some states are proportional, some are WTA Oh, and we can change the rules at any time. Seriously, In my youth I used to play a drinking game with rules like this.

And yet there have been no issues since 1976 because the voters usually identify a candidate and give him a majority of delegates. Regardless of how the delegates are awarded.

That Trump represents a combination of no effort on the ground game with a singularly unelectable profile means that suddenly the identity of delegates matters.
