TRUMPKINS ON SUICIDE WATCH

CRUZ VICTORY IMMINENT

CRUZ/FIORINA 2016

In Indiana's Republican presidential primary, Cruz is favored by 44.8 percent of survey respondents, compared with 29 percent for Trump and 13.3 percent for Ohio Gov. John Kasich, the Downs Center said. Thirteen percent of respondents said they were undecided.

Despite the wide margin between Cruz and New York City real estate developer Trump, who is the national front-runner for the Republican nomination, the Downs Center cautioned "the race still could be in flux" because of the number of undecided voters, Kasich's decision this week not to campaign in Indiana as part of a reported agreement with Cruz and Cruz's announcement Wednesday that Carly Fiorina would be his running mate if he would become the GOP nominee.

The poll found that 57 percent of Cruz's supporters are women, compared with 44.8 percent for Trump, who has made disparaging remarks about certain women during his campaign.

Cruz can win everything between now and convention and it still won't matter.

Cruz was eliminated a long time ago.
>>
>>72469966
The poll was started two weeks ago, has a smaller sample size than others, and completely contradicts not only the polls that have been made public, but even Cruz's and Trump's internal polling that have been leaked as well.

So much butthurt after Trump wins Indiana assuming the establishment doesn't try to pull some last minute rigging. This is Cruz's pathetic last stand to try and steal the nomination after all.

Lyin Ted

Oh, I forgot to mention.

Its the only poll showing anything like this whereas every other poll shows a Trump lead.


Trump is still going to win Indiana and the nomination. A botched poll isn't going to change that.
>>
>>72470431
And if Trump gets anything under 1237 delegates, the GOPe won't hesitate to hand the nomination to Cruz or Kasich.

>>72470641
How is this supposed to work, exactly?

There isn't some secret council in a back room who decides the nominee. The nominee is the one who gets 50%+1 delegates.

Ted would somehow need to flip 400-500 delegates to vote for him before Trump could flip 0-100.

It makes no sense for Teddy to stay in the race at this point- even if there was a contested convention, he can't win on a 2nd, 3rd, or 500th ballot.

They can threaten that all they want but they have already shown their balls to be nonexistant.

They would be piss scared of Trump voters staying home.

Denying Trump would be the fastest way to give Hillary Clinton the presidency.

Now it's pretty much proven that Lyin' Ted cannot be president because he's not born/native/naturalized in the US. So if he wins, he's ultimately OUT of the race. Meaning whoever wins on the Democratic side will become President by default.

>>72470872
>Ted would somehow need to flip 400-500 delegates
A good chunk of the delegates are party insiders or Cruz supporters only voting for Trump on the first ballot because they are bound based on how the people voted. In particular, Cruz has had his staff in several states rigging the process for selecting the actual delegates to be in his favor should the contested convention occur.

They aren't Rattos biggest fans either last time I checked.

But anyway, its an outlier and weak poll according to 538:

And Trump doesn't need Indiana:

Cruz will probably win Indiana. He'll definitely get Nebraska. But then what? Trump will get West Virginia for sure. He'll also probably get Oregon and Washington. Not even June yet, and that gives him about a hundred delegates on top of what he already has. Then he waits until June, California happens, and Trump wins. The other states hardly even matter, California is almost enough for him to win by itself, and you're delusional if you think a bible-thumper like Cruz has any chance there.

Trump will win the Republican primaries. If the party choose to nominate someone else anyway, it will be the death of the GOP and the birth of a new political party under whatever name he chooses. The kind of support he has doesn't just go away. The party can either embrace Trump or be destroyed by him.

There's nothing secret about it. Trumps delegates are mostly party loyalists are who will vote whichever way the GOP tells them to in the event of a contested convention.

However, it's becoming increasingly unlikely that there will be a contested convention. California alone will give Trump at least half of what he needs.

>>72471922
If Trump doesn't win on the first ballot hundreds and hundreds of his delegates will jump ship. This is already a fait accompli.

If Trump is going to win he needs to either get to 1237 before the convention. Or get 1237 on the first vote of the convetion.

If Cruz wins Indiana both are virtually impossible. If Cruz limits Trump to only like 40 delegates in Indiana, the second is possible but not necessarily going to happen.

I'll give you a hint PA has 54 unbound delegates and Trump thinks 30ish of them are "his people" This is not the case. All of those people in order to be able to be voted on as delegates had to submit their nomination papers to the PA secretary of state 2 years ago. Those are not Trump people.

In 2012, /pol wasn't even firmly behind Romney, who won mostly fairly, and even ended up with >50% of the popular vote. At least half of /pol/ voted third party, wrote in Ron Paul, or stayed at home.

Imagine Ted Cruz, who not only has been trying to blame Trump for riots and terrorist attacks, spreading half-truths, and stealing delegates, but who's only hope is an undemocratic process of putting only his followers up as delegates.

A few people will vote for him against Hillary, but he's burned all his bridges for me and many others.

>>72473293
As a complete outsider from another country there's no way I'd vote Cruz - even watching his town hall stuff he gives off a very creepy attitude, if you told me he was a cult leader I'd completely believe you.

He's done so much cringey shit on camera, all the star wars quotes, that stuff about wanting to be on the Simpsons etc. I now it's all PR stuff but he comes across as a complete weirdo desperately trying to be liked but failing miserably.

If I was a voter in the US with no knowledge of either Cruz or Clintons policies I'd vote Clinton. I can imagine a lot of people in the US who don't know much about politics would do the same.

Not to mention his whole evangelical stuff completely alienates a lot of people, I know Romney was pretty religious but he at least seemed like the kind of guy you could have a drink with and talk to.

They have either declared their support for him publicly, or said they will vote what their district voted. They aren't bullshiting when they say he has 30 unbound delegates from Pennsylvania.
>>
>>72475785
>They have either declared their support for him publicly, or said they will vote what their district voted
Yes. but there is no legal requirement for them to vote for him. They are unbound. And if rule 16 of the convention is repealed they may not even be required to vote for anyone on the first ballot or any ballot. So maybe they won't vote for Cruz at first, but they just abstain, which is still a vote less for Trump who needs 1237 delegate votes to get the nomination.

And from now until July these delegates are going to be courted by the Cruz campaign itself, as well as other members of the GOP telling them that voting for Trump is bad because of x, y, z.

How do you think some of these delegates who have likely been involved in republican politics in PA for decades will react when their former senator Rick Santorum meets with them to try to persuade them that voting for Trump at the convention is bad for PA, bad for the GOP and bad for America?

Rule 40b requires that in order to be eligible to be nominated to be a presidential candidate a person must have won the majority of delegates from at least 8 states or territories.

Rule 40b can be changed by the convention rules committee which is comprised of a man and woman delegate from each of the 56 states and territories chosen by that state or territory's delegates. The majority of the states and territories delegates will be comprised of a majority of delegates that are loyal to Trump or Cruz.

Essentially Trump and Cruz will get to decide whether rule 40b stays in effect. I am confident Cruz can communicate his desires to his delegates, and am more confident that Trump can now as well due to his hire of Rick Wiley.

This. All the media outlets are dismissing this too.

Started 04/13, completely contradicts every other public poll of Indiana released in April and, come on, if Cruz does win, it's not going to be by any fucking sixteen points.

This pollster's going to look like an ass in a few days.
