Can’t read the whole story. But hey, if Cruz can’t beat him at the ballot box might as well cheat him out of delegates.

Good luck with President Clinton if you game the convention away from Trump after he gets his 1,237 delegates. And good luck ever winning an election again after that.

Can’t read the whole story. But hey, if Cruz can’t beat him at the ballot box might as well cheat him out of delegates.

Trump result: 41.4% 124,818 votes.
Cruz result: 37.8% 113,949 votes.

Both are now at 18 delegates each. The article below explains it (not from WSJ).

If you were ever wondering what good a professional campaign organization can do for a candidate, it’s this: it can take a state where the polls had a candidate down by 15 points on Election Day, and turn it into a state where the candidate tied for first in the delegate count. And perfectly ethically, too! The rules are the rules, and they’re perfectly reasonable ones; it’s nobody’s fault except Trump and his campaign’s if they didn’t actually read them, and Ted Cruz’s people did. Welcome to the big leagues…

GO TED!!!!

I don't get you Cruz guys. You know the only reason he's getting any support from the establishment is to stop Trump right? And you know they're never going to allow Cruz to be the nominee right? And you know know they're going to put in a weak establishment type right? And you know that Hillary will beat that person right? And you know this is the plan right?

Well, nobody can ever accuse Cruz of being honest and ethical.
He will cheat and lie to get what he wants.

Very ugly person he is.

True.

Finding ballots in lost boxes.

Now we know how Romney got the nomination, paying people to do the dirty work.
