Title: Actual Delegate Count
Post by: taxed on April 16, 2016, 06:27:26 PM
The latest count, with him tallying certain Rubio votes (there's more, but safe number).

QuoteTrump currently has 763 Bound Delegates and 2 Unbound Delegates for a total of 765.
Ted Cruz currently has 542 and 154 unbound delegates for a total of 696.

    Real Numbers: Cruz 696 Delegates to Trumps 765 Delegates.

So Ted Cruz will not be mathematically challenged out after New York.

Any delegates Cruz wins in NY will be a bonus. Delegates will be assigned by congressional districts as well as statewide.

Interesting read....
Clearly the campaign process is RIGGED and favors intelligent, well reasoned candidates over boisterous well seasoned candidates!

I thought something sounded wrong. Every day their were reports of Cruz's delegate strength growing; but the media never changed the totals. They are so in the tank for Trump - and by extension helping the Demorats - that it's positively obscene.
