Lose With Cruz '16 -- nm - the brain Apr 5, 18:38 12
- If Cruz won everything from now until the convention, can he get enough delegates to win on the first ballot? -- nm - Mop Apr 5, 18:41 5
  - I think he'd need to win all the winner-take-all states, plus about 2/3 of the rest to do it. -- nm - mafic Apr 5, 19:02
  - Doubtful. I think his goal is to keep Donald around the 1100-1150 mark. Cruz would need 732 of the remaining 900. -- nm* - Strongbad Apr 5, 18:43
  - in theory, i think so. but that's not going to happen. what is likely to happen is that he'll win just enough to keep Trump from crossing the outright - the brain Apr 5, 18:42 2
    - If Cruz comes close, Trump has less of a case for "they should give it to me anyway". - Mop Apr 5, 18:44 1

        Maybe Charlie Crist will stop him! -- nm - Strongbad Apr 5, 19:13
    - nope. the remnants of the GOP will treat him with a coronation. -- nm - mud Apr 5, 18:50
