For the record...

[Washi]

Not surprising that both Democrats won big in New York.

I don’t think we need a pope.

Then there is this;

And the fact Trump signs 22k paychecks on the FRONT.

Now will he manage to knock out the Canadian?

And then will Kacich steal the nomination from him?

The Canadian is gonna stick like gum on a Nun's shoe at the playground. His ego won't allow him to let it go even though he is now officially out of any running. He may as well be working for Hillary now.

I wouldn't be surprised to start hearing Rubio's name more if it looks like a contested convention - then the "Cruz or Lose" folks can proudly proclaim they had a say in who our candidate ended up being....

[QuigleyDU]

None taken. He won’t lose his base, he has to win OH in November

OH is nuthin’ if he loses everyplace else. Ksick is despised almost universally.

Nope, OH is everything, no R can win the white house without it, but also is the enthusiast support and endorsement of Cruz and all of the GoPe. Don’t see it, happening I believe they would rather have Hillary.

The odds have been and will from now on be skewed heavily against any R because of the demographic shift, Great Americans dying off replaced by confused collectivist.

If Kasick drops out his delegates go to Trump. So since Kasick is a #NeverTrumper Kasick will not drop out as long as Trump is under 1137.

In the general, the GOP candidate isn’t going to carry NY

Colorado is a possibility

Well in the case of Mr.Trump he is amazing.At this point I think he will get the nomination.My hope is that he wins the Presidency and follows through with his statements.I look forward to more jobs for Americans here in the USA.I just sat there with my mouth open when the polls closed.He won by so much.

Hard to complain about an honest open vote. On the other hand ........

[pgkdan]

In PA the winner of the primary gets 17 bound delegates. I think they’re only bound on the first ballot. The remaining 54 are elected on primary night but there is no indication on the ballot to whom they are bound. Each candidate needs a ground game in PA in every district and to some extent in every precinct if possible. They need to recruit delegate candidates who would vote for their candidate and then let the voters know on election day who those candidates are. It’s a very intense process.

[georgiarat]

Kasich is Trumps secret partner. He stays in to take votes from Ted... And then teams with Trump to have a solid ticket.

If Kasich were not in the race Cruz would have zero delegates in NY and Trump would have 95. Trump would also have the 66 delegates from Ohio,
Next week Cruz would again pick up none are maybe a few from a proportional state where he breaks ten percent. Kasich is the only reason the race is still in doubt.

[pgkdan]

Colorado showed how commissars chose leaders.

Yes...they stole the old Soviet Politburo's playbook.

[tillacum]

Thank you markomalley. Now I won’t get upset when the delegates change their minds. I just heard of FoxnFriends
some delegates are promised the moon to change their minds.
Even little brown bags are offered. (chuckle)

[JustSurrounded]

Well, that's one way to look at it. Here's another:

from http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/republican_vote_count.html

Popular vote total

Trump 8,716,136
Cruz 6,387,243
Rubio 3,445,578
Kasich 3,175,166

It's clearly going to be a tough haul for Republicans:
Clinton 10,387,916
Sanders 7,699,652

However, more Republicans have voted, thus far, than democrats. Think of what would be possible if we were united.

[tillacum]

You are absolutely correct. He promised Texans he’d do a good job in the senate. He’s been absent for a lot of months. He’s still collecting his salary and other perks senators “are due”. He’s given Texans who voted for him, a big lie. He’s shirking his duties as a senator..but taking the money. Not good.

[spokeshave]

Unfair! This was rigged. The people were actually allowed to cast votes! This is not way to run "The Process."

The Castro is strong with this one.

[Vigilanteman]

I've been an election judge for three years in one of the larger precincts in one of better run counties in Pennsylvania. I think that I've seen it all, but probably not even a fraction.

There is only a small handful of voters whom we are even legally allowed to ask for identifications, such as first timers. We're lucky we are in a fairly civilized precinct where a lot of the voters do it without being asked.

Our only layer of security is signature matching. When we took over this job, I'd say that close to 10% of the signatures in our poll book were either missing or illegible. So if someone comes in and claims to be Mary Smith with such a signature, you can't legally challenge them unless you have personal knowledge and are willing to put up $10 to challenge. If her signature is simply illegible, she can legally refuse to sign an affidavit with a proper signature and vote. That's the weirdness of the law. However, if it is missing, we can insist that the affidavit be signed and submitted so the poll book can be updated for next time.

Fortunately, I'm blessed with a great team that gets these updates done, so we are seeing a lot fewer of them in the third year.

We also get a parade of people who insist they are eligible to vote in our precinct even if they aren't in the poll book. I have to pretend to be sympathetic even as I call the county election bureau who explains things to them and sends them packing.

It does make you wonder if so much of this type of stuff goes on in one of the better run precincts in one of the better run counties, how much of it gets swept under the rug unchallenged in those which are not.

[spokeshave]

Kasich is a Soros stooge. He supports ObaMao Care, common core and amnesty, just for starters.

And he voted for NAFTA and supports TTP

Not a person to be on the Trump Train.
