How do they propose to make this “brokered convention” work in a way that satisfactory to the rank and file of Republican primary voters, or to Republican-leaning voters in general?
The last brokered convention the Republicans had was in 1948, when Thomas E. Dewey came away as the nominee, only to lose to an incumbent President of somewhat flagging popularity, Harry S Truman. The last brokered convention the Democrats had was 1952, when Adlai Stevenson emerged as their candidate, only to lose to the wildly popular Dwight D. Eisenhower, who had name recognition probably exceeding that of The Donald.
Brokered conventions are almost sure to select the loser in the general election.
There are no brokers anymore. In the case of inconclusive primary results, it would be an open convention. Big difference.
