Of course Cruz would. Why isn’t he out of the race now? He’s already mathematically eliminated. He’s trying to steal it via 2nd ballot. That’s the ONLY way and ONLY reason he still in the race
Except, the only reason there would be a second ballot was if Donald hasn’t won the first. So you claiming that a second ballot victory is kind of misinformation.
Learn the process. We are NOT a democracy, we are a republic, and the Republicans model their nomination process after the republic process, election of representatives.
Lincoln won on the 3rd, almost 4th, ballot by the way...

Someone needs to remind Cruz that in a general the voters vote and you can’t bribe delegates to win.
Seeing as he can’t get more than 4 states to vote for him then his chances are about to slim and on Mars.
