After sweeping all five primaries that occurred Tuesday – Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania – Donald Trump has 987 delegates, Cruz has 562 with 622 remaining.
Ted Cruz was mathematically eliminated on Tuesday night.
There are fewer delegates remaining than we originally projected because the delegates in Wyoming, Colorado and North Dakota were allocated in corrupt voter-less elections. But our April 2nd projections for Trump and Cruz were very, very close.
Trump was awarded another 40 Pennsylvania delegates on Wednesday which brings his total to 987.
Donald Trump only needs 250 more delegates to secure the Republican nomination.
Overall for Trump –
** Donald Trump won every county in every state on Tuesday.
** Donald Trump only needs to win 43% of the remaining delegates to secure the GOP nomination.
** Trump leads all Republican candidates with 987 delegates and has more delegates than all the other Republican candidates combined.
** Trump now leads all Republican and Democratic candidates with 23 primary wins (Cruz has 4 while Hillary has 21).
** Trump leads all candidates in states won – 26 (primaries and caucuses) – now more than half of the states and territories.
Is he counting the ones he considers illegally bound in Colorado, Wyoming, and N. Dakota and elsewhere?
I think he’ll get Indiana, too.
They may have to do Colorado over again. Tedsters cheated.
yep
but cruz will get a handful of delegates and call it a victory.
he’s like Baghdad bob now
Trump crushing Cruz and worrying democrats. It’s over. But the Cruzers are not thinking rationally. Some nut on CNN tried his best to defend Cruz and failed. It’s all the wrong scoop people are focusingn. o
It’s all the wrong scoop people are focusing on.
I listened to Jonah Goldberg of National Review spinning that kind of fantasy tale on Fox late Tuesday night.
You could see by his sweating that he didn’t believe a word of it.
Krauthammer on the other hand looked like some kraut had beat him with a hammer. The most despondent look I’d ever seen on the guy.

Hugh Hewitt hardest hit!!!
I gave him 14 on my spread sheet. Do you think that will hold? I gave him the state which is ten and 2 of 5 congressional districts at 3 divided 2-1-0.
