CNN is showing Trump with 52 total in PA:
http://edition.cnn.com/election/primaries/states/pa/Rep
Current delegate count according to them, and I have found them to be fairly accurate is:
Trump: 991
Cruz: 568
Kasich: 154

As I predicted on the Primary Thread yesterday, Trump got over 100 of the delegates last night.
I expect he will go well over the top (probably by 50 or more delegates at this point), on June 7th.
If Cruz is interested in the GOP (without any “e”) winning in November, then he needs to concede next week after Trump (in all likelihood) takes Indiana.
I pray to God that is what he will do. He has the power to:
1) Unite the party by so doing.
2) Deliver a huge blow to the GOPe by so doing.
3) Set up for a big GOP NOvember win.
My Open Letter to Ted Cruz

I say all of this as one who has diligently supported Cruz...but recognizes the truth of the situation and the absolute need to defeeat the Dems in November.
While I am loathe to give CNN any credit, I’ll have to agree that they’ve been the most accurate with delegate account.
No way. Cruz is so far back up the Bush rear end he’s probably looking for oceanfront property in Maine. There is no way he is going to let the Bush family down.
The 991 count would mean Trump only needed 246 more to reach 1237.
It would also mean that he had collected 52.19% of the assigned delegates so far, and would only need to win 49% of the remaining delegates.
991 would represent 80.11% of the 1237 delegates.
Cruz with 568 delegates, has 45.12% of the 1237 delegates.
I believe Trump will wind up yesterday’s count close to 1000 delegates, just a few votes shy.
The guy is obviously right on track and building steam.
Awesome letter Jeff, unfortunately he is too pig headed to understand it!
Hell yea
Fox prolly has Trump at 920
