I can see how Kasich could win the Democrat-dominated states' primary races -- Vermont, Maryland, Illinois, Michigan, Maryland, California, etc... and be one of the names nominated at the Republican convention.

Democrat voters may crossover and vote for him in lieu of Hillary (grafter) and Sanders (kook). My "evidence" is conversation with California (Bay Area) daughter who leans liberal.

My preference is Cruz & his 10th amendment stand (my motto is Lesser Government = Greater America). However, unless he can win in 8 states, his name will not be entered at the Republican Nomination. Would like to hear from folks from Republican-dominated states, such as in the west, if Cruz can top Trump in those states.

“My “evidence” is conversation with California (Bay Area) daughter who leans liberal.”

Just read a letter in our local rag from some transplant from Ohio to NE Florida who supports Kasich. A perfect example of why we should stop any immigration from the north to the south. “ole Johnny was so great for Ohio” we should vote for him here in Florida....kinda like the same thing we hear all the time, “we did it better back where I came from.” My general comment to those points is, if it was so great there, why are you here?

Why would you put MD in Kasich’s column. Maryland does not have open primaries; one registers for a party and is permitted to vote only in that primary. h

From Texas- Cruz has a slight edge in most polls. If no one gets over 50 percent of the vote, then 70 percent of our electors go in a two to one ratio for the first and second place finishers. The other 30 percent are awarded at a state caucus later?
