How does a brokered convention work? If Cruz wins Iowa and
Trump wins all the rest, what are they brokering?

*******************

You have to win a majority of the delegates on the first ballot.
If not then it becomes a brokered convention and delegates are released.
And the barganing begins......

Delegates to the convention: 2,470

Delegates needed to win the nomination (50%+1): 1,236
