If Cruz falls short big time in the delegate count by the convention time, these same delegates may just vote for Trump.
In 2008 Romney won the state with 60% of the CO straw vote over McCain who only got a measly 19%. So what happen on the floor of the convention? The CO delegates seeing who really won the whole enchilada, Romney got shut out with zero delegates. It was McCain and his 19% who got them all.
In 2012, Santorum won 6 pledged delegates, Romney got the rest. But when it was time, Santo did not receive a single CO delegate during the floor vote.
So I wouldn’t get all cocky there Cruzer.
They’re not going to vote for Trump, because Cruz will have outworked, outplayed Trump.
Not only that but personally knowing some of these Cruz delegates-Trump (and his supporters) have waged a scorched earth campaign for months.
DON’T THINK SO.
