the eighth state or territory in which Trump won a majority of the delegates. I don’t think anybody else can do it!

state or territory?

IIRC, the rule (40) says ‘states’.

Of course, there is still talk that the rules committee will meet before the convention and could change rules.

Correct! Cruz needs 3 more states to win a MAJORITY of the delegates. That doesn't sound too hard at first glance but with Kasich probably not pulling out, it might be impossible. Remember, Cruz could win more of the delegates in a particular state but if he wins, say 48%, that is still not a MAJORITY of the delegates. Problem for Cruz is that most of the best states for him are already done. He has no chance in the Northeast for a majority in any of those states so his ONLY chance is New Mexico, Utah, Montana, or the Dakotas. Northwest states are also out.
