If Tucker is from Illinois which hasn’t held its primary yet, how can he be a delegate for Cruz? The GOP doesn’t have super-delegates as far as I know. What am I missing?

The GOP does have super-delegates they just aren’t called super-delegates.

You’ve missed nothing. The man is a voter at this point, nothing more. The Trumpettes are making hay of one voter saying he no longer supports Cruz. It’s because the don’t have the likes of So well it Levin. They need something. It’s desperation.

They don't call them that, but the GOP does have 'special' delegates awarded by state districts, governors, etc. It is a convoluted mess to try to figure out who they are and how they are awarded.
