Win votes that are upcoming is the answer. Second to that is to hope Ted gets third place in many of them, which I do believe he will.

How Trump can lock up GOP nomination before the convention

With a strategy like Reagan's: "We win, they lose!"

There’s more: Carson and Christie (and, I think Paul) all have unbound delegates available before the convention (something like 12-14) plus 16-18 unbound delegates from the Virgin Islands. There are also unannounced winners from ND, which according to Lewandowski gave Trump 3-6.

That’s potentially 36 more.

Trump is the only one with a path to the 1237, but it’s a difficult path. Considering the rigged system, it is very difficult.

April 19 - Tuesday - is:
NY (95) majority take all. Trump has to get over 50%, and it’s a question of his get out the vote efforts.

April 26 - a week later - is:
DE (16) winner take all
MD (38) winner take most
PA (71) winner take most
CT (28)
RI (19)
Again, it’s a question of get out the vote, but it’s also a question of knowing the rules. Trump has to allocate resources based on the delegate formula for that state. A good showing in NY will boost him for April 26, but he also needs to make an effort in each district of the “winner take most” states.

After April 26, we will know whether a first round nomination is likely or almost out of the question. How hard will Trump work between now and then? How hard will Cruz work? How comfortable are the voters with a Trump convention? With a contested convention?
