| | | Winning battles and losing the war: My opinion of the SC results

....sorry but for you and ANYONE else who thinks they got this thing all figured out......first read CAREFULLY this article which details all the primaries and how each state awards delegates........including dates, timing, how many, proportionality, winner take all, threshold, bound vs unbound, etc. Trump appears to be getting the plurality of delegates in proportional states and in states with thresholds, Carson and, Kasich will likely be shut out. If Trump on March 15 starts to win (even with a plurality of only 35%) in winner take all states like Florida, he will win.the nomination. Apparently Trump has a large lead in Florida with Rubio running behind Cruz. Now I'm quite sure each campaign has it all figured out how things must go to win. But folks here including me don't. But in all likelihood, by this time next month, it will become very clear. So I will just continue to support the best candidate in my opinion which is TED CRUZ. If by this time next month things change dramatically, then I know I'll have some real soul searching to do. I suspect many others will as well. |
