Kind of like the southern states strategy that Cruz was going to lock up? You mean that professional campaign and ground game?

No way man, this thing is too high profile now. It would be bigger than the officials giving the Lombardi Trophy to the Super Bowl loser.

There are so many non-political folks paying attention this time around simply because of Trump. If they cheat him, it’s the biggest loss of all time in the general. People would be livid!

So he’s only down 734 to 473 now? Maybe if Cruz can flip a few more and include the provinces in Canada that will even it out?

Good try but NOPE. It wasn’t Cruz that did this, it was a small PAC that hates Trump

BS, cruz approved the add by not denouncing it. The fact that he is too much of a coward to admit it just shows what a sleazy punk he truly is.

This isn’t new news. It’s 28 to 28 in LA even though Trump beat Cruzlose. And Trump tied Cruz 14 to 14 in Alaska when Rube left, which came later after the 15th when Rube badly lost Florida.

I’ll be livid along with them, and I’m not saying I definitely intend to vote for Cruz or any other guaranteed-loser GOPe stooge ever again, but I’ll still be surprised if we see low turnout on election day in November.

You need to work on your math skill. LA only has 46 delegates. It WAS 18 for Trump, 18 for Cruz, 5 for Rubio and 5 uncommitted. According to the article, the 5 Rubio delegate slots are now uncommitted and were filled with Cruz supporters, as were the "unbound" delegate slots. So that means that LA wound up with Cruz 28, Trump 18.

I voted for Cruz in the Texas primary. However, I’m more than happy if Donald Trump is the nominee. As a matter of fact, I think a Trump/Cruz ticket could beat Hillary 60-40 or even 70-30.

Well that AND the fast that 40 of the 54 delegates from PA are uncommitted they can vote for whoever they want!

Actually, it is 54 out of 71 delegates are uncommitted.

You don't understand the rules for those that follow The Dear Leader

Rules are as follows
1) If anything helps Trump, it is a good and righteous rule
2) It anything makes Trump mad, or hurts the cause to elect Dear Leader, it is under handed, dirty, cheating, borne of liars, done by someone who has an ugly wife, done to get Hillary elected, done because the GOPe made them, lying pedophile scumbag

See that's not so hard to understand

Will never happen. Cruz isn't likeable. His own coworkers can't stand him. He's turned off half of his support that went to Trump with his submission to the GOPe.
