My guess is all 21 will be awarded to Trump

Nope, they did it right I was trying to jump ahead. I'm following the bound delegate tracker on AP and they are not matching.

Maine has 12 bound to Cruz, 9 bond to Trump.
Let's see how this goes.

Michigan just passed....

Michigan passes.

That's tradition, some states pass so the home state can cast the deciding vote.

I can't watch but that is indeed what is happening.

I'm not watching either.  I'm just going to focus on 2020.

Unless they have been involved in this before, they may not know about the tradition. You'll probably have several States pass so New York can cast the deciding vote.

Delegate friend from Texas is posting to watch when Texas votes, there is going to be a big surprise.


...hmmm at the rate things have been going -- even though delegate majority went to Cruz and he won TX -- it will go to Trump.  No surprise.  We no longer have a voice, a vote, or a chance to restore our Republic. 
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

She didn't say it was a good surprise. She has been posting live on facebook as this is going on and is as shocked about some of the allocation as we are- re bound delegates being allocated to candidates they aren't bound to.

If they didn't pass the rule saying they couldn't do that, it wouldn't be an issue.

Per AP, Carson had one bound from Nevada and he wasn't awarded that (rest of the numbers seemed correct)

I don't like people mocking people over politics, either way it goes.  Period.  That goes for both sides of this apparent civil war we have going on. 

Mocking the opponent is a cheat.

I agree.  It is a refuge for the lack of thought.

OK, they did fix the Carson issue even though he wasn't read.

The GOP should seriously consider a unity ticket with Clinton. After all, it is the only chance Trump has.

I'll be working on some new graphics and these will work even if a meteorite manages to wipe out all democrats and give Trump his only real shot at the white house.

They cut off any other candidates from being formally being put into nomination. There have been a few cases where they cut off other mics and had awkward pauses when something went on. I think we are just not seeing objections or attempts to make statements.
