Are the two possible outcomes of the Republican primary either Trump winning enough delegates to cinch the nomination outright or a brokered convention? Or are there enough delegates still in play that Cruz has a chance of getting enough delegates to win the nomination in the first round of voting?

That's my reading of the situation too; I'd love to be corrected but I understand that Cruz has 465 delegates and there are 848 remaining from all remaining primaries. To secure 1,237, Cruz would need to win 91% of remaining delegates which seems impossible at this point. If my numbers don't add up, let me know.

Gobbeldygook posted:There's also option 2.5: Trump goes to the convention with less than 1247 committed delegates, like 50-100 short, everyone pops the champagne because they STOPPED TRUMP!, and he wins on the first ballot because some portion of the 200+ uncommitted delegates are just as crazy as the rest of the party. Oh uhh I didn't know they could do this. Am I mistaken in my assumption that all delegates enter the convention bound to vote for a candidate on the first vote? Where do the uncommitted delegates come from? E: to add, I thought even delegates pledged to a candidate no longer running were still obligated to vote for that candidate in the first vote because technically candidates only "suspend" their campaign, not drop out completely Serrath fucked around with this message at 08:35 on Apr 1, 2016 |
