DENVER (AP) — While the focus of the Republican presidential campaign shifts eastward to the New York primary, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is pivoting west, where he is quietly trying to chip away at Donald Trump's lead in the race for convention delegates.
Cruz won six pledged delegates during a pair of obscure, congressional-level Colorado GOP assemblies on Saturday. He is also poised to make gains in several other western Republican contests, including a possible sweep of Colorado's remaining assemblies, due to conclude Saturday.

READ THIS POST AND FIGURE IT OUT:
The rules for the caucuses and primaries were set last year and available to all candidates. Cruz is smarter and better organized than the egoist, Trump, and is using the system to his advantage as any intelligent candidate would do. Epic fail for Trump.
Poor Trump — what’s he going to do next — call for riots in the streets if he loses, publish the room numbers of the delegates to intimidate. HE’S A FAILURE.
Trump supporters have accused Cruz of going GOPe- does the same apply to Trump?
