Not yet. But should he be mathematically eliminated, should he then withdraw from the race?

No. Such a suggestion obviously doesn't apply to the delegate leader.

I'm sure you know your question is asinine in the extreme. But you just had to ask it still, didn't you?

Your seriousness and sincerity have been duly noted.

The Revolution is ON!

Vote Trump

There is no convention rule that says the “delegate leader” gets the nomination. Only that the candidate with a majority of delegates voting for them gets the nomination. The word “obvious” cannot be applied to a rule you made up yourself.

By this standard of “mathematical elimination,” all candidates could be eliminated on June 7th, because voting will end and no one might have earned 1237 bound delegates.

As has your double-standard.
