Nineteen of Cruz's slate of 20 delegates were picked for the Republican national convention, meaning that at least 19 out of the 23 delegates Maine will send to the convention in Cleveland will be Cruz supporters which would benefit the Texas senator if the Republican presidential-selection process goes to multiple ballots.
Back in March, Cruz won Maine's caucus contest, grabbing 12 pledged delegates versus nine for Donald Trump and two for John Kasich. The delegates who were chosen in Maine are bound to reflect that allocation on the first ballot of voting.
But if no presidential candidate wins a majority of the 2,472 delegates, then many of these reps would be free to support the candidate of their choice after a first round of voting at the convention.

An Open Letter To Ted Cruz From a 70 Year Old Texan
Glenn Baxter shared this open letter on Facebook to senator Ted Cruz.
AN OPEN LETTER TO TED CRUZ FROM A 70 YEAR OLD NATIVE TEXAS WHO WAS A LIFETIME REPUBLICAN.
Dear Mr. Cruz,
You emailed me stating that, I’m quite literally fighting for my political life, and your response to this email will determine the success of this campaign and ultimately the direction of our country for years to come. So, I’m personally asking you one more time: will you help me unite the GOP and take on Donald Trump and his friend Hillary Clinton? Will you make an urgent gift to help me compete with Donald Trump’s billions?
My response to you is HELL NO I WANT SEND YOU ONE RED CENT. You are an embarrassment to every Native Texan and American voter who sees through all of your snake oil, sneaky, lying tactics that takes the millions of popular votes away from Donald Trump. Your deception that Donald Trump is a friend of Hillary Clinton is laughable. Trump will wipe the floor with Hillary the same way he is kicking your ass through millions of the little people votes.
I supported you when I thought you were an outsider. Then, when you lied about Dr. Carson in Iowa, I became disgusted with you. Americans have been mentally manipulated by crooked lawyer politicians like you for far too long. YOU ARE A LIAR AND NOT AN OUTSIDER like Dr. Carson and Mr. Trump.
Today you are being supported by Jeb Bush, Rick Perry and the Corrupt Big Oil Bush Family whose corrupt actions have placed America into the hands of Obamas infiltration of Muslim Sharia Law in our homeland and enabled public servants like Paul Ryan, Mitch OConnell, John Boehner, and many others to take million dollar bribes from Big Corporations who dont give a damn about America and the voters. All of these GOP profiteers with Hillary are in favor of a United Nations One World Government.
Your campaign presents an impressive list of accomplishments as a one term Senator. But why should any voter with common sense trust you Mr. Cruz when you renounced your Canadian citizenship 18 months before you became a candidate and sealed your birth records like one term Senator President Obama. In my eyes you are nothing more than a Phony Texan and a White Obama.
You and your wife Heidi brag about your Bush marriage. Your wife Heidi has a leave of absence from Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs provides political donations to Obama, Hillary, Romney, Bush, McCain and ALL THE REPUBLICRATS TO CONTROL BOTH PARTIES. Goldman Sachs Sharia compliant financing threatens the United States Constitution and the Republic. Isnt this is something you should be addressing since you pride yourself as a Constitutional Scholar. Yet, you nor the mainstream media addresses this imminent threat to destroy America. And arent you a little ashamed about shutting out voters in Colorado?
Your wife Heidi has supported TTP, USTR, an NAU that eliminated the borders between the United States, Mexico and Canada. Do you really think voters trust that you as a former Canadian citizen will not support The North American Union where more jobs will be lost and more poverty and crime will come into the United States of America?
Your campaign manager Chad Sweet is a former CIA operative under Chertoff. These two are experts in creation of false narrative, disinformation, and brainwashing voters with denial and deception. Mr. Cruz when I watch and listen to you on television I see a puppet with imaginary strings attached to your head, mouth, arms and hands. I now hear you speaking as a hypocritical, cheating, evangelistic snake oil salesman.
I pray to God that everyday more and more voters wake up and see the truth about you. You are a member of the greedy, ruthless, wealthy elite establishment with a goal of enslaving every man, woman and child in a One World Government.
Obama promised HOPE and gave us Muslim Hell. You Mr. Cruz as the nominee will give up a third world county like your homeland Cuba when the borders are opened. There is no way you can beat Hillary and defend our right to free speech and right to bear arms.
Mr. Cruz, American’s want their country back. They want jobs, security for families and a wall for protection against illegal criminal, terrorists and drugs. They do not want a new flag, a new Amero currency. We want jobs and security for families.
Mr. Cruz, your list of accomplishments is absent humanity. Trump has humanity because he was born in America and loves his country. He wants to give his service to America he loves and not be owned by Big Corporations and Goldman Sachs Banksters.
We do not want a puppet, phony Texan cheating Bill Clinton hypocrite puppet with strings being pulled by the same Texas Big Oil that assassinated John F. Kennedy over 40 years ago.
You Mr. Cruz are a taker and user of the country just as you are to women. Everyone is waiting for you to sue the Enquirer. You could add this suit to your cold list of accomplishments. Im an intelligent human who want be holding my breath on that. What a hypocrite.
Therefore Mr. Cruz, I and millions of voters are not falling for the biased controlled media and your CIA disinformation. Donald Trump will surely NOT lose to Hillary Clinton and President Trump will grasp the greatest opportunity to change the direction of our county and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Very truly yours,
M. Glenn Baxter
P.S. With the 15 primary contest left before the convention I will not be donating to your special links for your team to put together a special Defeat Donald Trump. Just ask Jeb for a loan like you got from Goldman Sachs. Friend, it is that important to me to see you waste more of Jebs money. And I can imagine where the United States would be without you.

Well there you go, I’d say this Texas is finished with Cruz and his whole bag of tricks...
“I dont think Cruz is exactly out maneuvering Trump in these states. The establishment in these states is letting Cruz have his delegates as part of an attempt to stop Trump on a second ballot. “
Exactly.Exactly. Exactly.
While Cruzers want to boast about a Cruz ground game the reality is the establishment is helping Cruz out.
I don’t know. Are you an @@@####.
pretty sure so don’t answer.
Amazing we’re for the same side yet you’re a #### and i’m not
I still don’t think that was a bribe.
I hope so. If the GOPe and Cruz succeed in grabbing enough bogus delegates to stop Trump, he will run as an independent. If he does, win or loose, a Third Party will emerge to kill the GOP which may finally have imploded.
That was a powerful letter. It’s clear isn’t going to be the people’s choice.
I just don’t understand why his supporters want to force him down our throats.
Do they really hate Trump that much?
It's a good point. What might be going on is this is the bush machine doing it's thing. I wouldn't be shocked if they try to hand it to Jeb.
What just happened there? Was that money for ...what?
Cruz has become Baghdad Bob.
It just looks like one. That is how smart Cruz is.
If anyone gets nominated by such means - anyone - it will be a phyrric victory as millions and millions of R voters will stay home
And with headlines like these, Cruz’s poll numbers will drop even more. He suffered after Colorado and Wyoming, voters don’t like treachery in their candidate’s campaigns.
“Most of the want-to-be delegate types are overly political people. Theyre GOPe types that dont care about what voters think.”
You have that exactly right.
What am I looking at here?
“The establishment in these states is letting Cruz have his delegates as part of an attempt to stop Trump on a second ballot.”
Completely agree. Cruz is getting a bit more credit for abilities that he doesn’t have.
What a little prick.
I can’t believe I ever respected this desperate looser.
I want him to crash and burn spectacularly now.
Corruption.
