After sweeping all five primaries that occurred Tuesday – Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania – Donald Trump has 987 delegates, Cruz has 562 with 622 remaining.
Ted Cruz was mathematically eliminated on Tuesday night.
There are fewer delegates remaining than we originally projected because the delegates in Wyoming, Colorado and North Dakota were allocated in corrupt voter-less elections. But our April 2nd projections for Trump and Cruz were very, very close.
Trump was awarded another 40 Pennsylvania delegates on Wednesday which brings his total to 987.
Donald Trump only needs 250 more delegates to secure the Republican nomination.
Overall for Trump –
** Donald Trump won every county in every state on Tuesday.
** Donald Trump only needs to win 43% of the remaining delegates to secure the GOP nomination.
** Trump leads all Republican candidates with 987 delegates and has more delegates than all the other Republican candidates combined.
** Trump now leads all Republican and Democratic candidates with 23 primary wins (Cruz has 4 while Hillary has 21).
** Trump leads all candidates in states won – 26 (primaries and caucuses) – now more than half of the states and territories.
More Pennsylvania delegates may be awarded.
It's Pennsylvania that Cruz is trying to ignore. He was supposed to win the conservative west and south of the state.
CRUZ CRUSH!
CRUZ CRUNCH!
Amen and Amen!
Our own little Amen corner over here.
Drive on to victory over Mrs Clinton!

But, Ted just said that it was going to be a contested convention, and Rove just said that trump had a “narrow path” to 1237.
hell, he could practically win with CA and NJ. NJ is WTA
still dont trust a country that had bernie beating cruz and trump by 20.
are people nuts?!!
And both are full of it. I think that has been Established.
It’s hard to fathom Trump winning every county on Tuesday.
Cruz got no ‘ground game’ when it’s up to the voters to get delegates.
Remind me again how Carly Fiorina is going to help Cruz????
I love the pic.
So wrong.. ahahaha.
“There are fewer delegates remaining than we originally projected because the delegates in Wyoming, Colorado and North Dakota were allocated in corrupt voter-less elections”
That cannot be repeated often enough.
70% of Republicans even many supporting Kasich and Cruz have said consistently in polls that the person who comes to the convention with the most votes and delegates and votes should be the nominee. I know that it is now all that they have left, but is pushing for a contested convention likely to get anyone more votes?
