It's not going to be contested. They can't change the rules until the convention. And the current rules say that you have to win 7 primaries to be nominated. They'd have to change that rule at the convention to thrwart Trump. And by then Trump is going to have won most if not all of the primaries. Who in their right mind is going to contest? If they contest one of three things will happen:

1. Trump will still win the nomination in a landslide and the contesting is going to look like a wimpy effort by GOPe miscontents.
2. If they do somehow manage to rig the convention to block Trump, Trump WILL go third party and probably will still win the election.
3. If the GOPe really has any significant support, which I seriously doubt, they will split the party and throw the election to the Democrats.

I think delegates are only obliged to vote for their designated candidate on the first ballot. After that???........

They are changing rules in the states as we speak regarding how delegates will be awarded.

They also changed the number of states a majority is needed in to 8.
