It’s often been said, in elections, it always comes down to Florida and Ohio.
Usually, this saying is reserved for the general election, as both swing states are key to surpassing the number of electoral votes needed to secure the presidency. This year, however, the drama in Ohio and Florida are coming a lot earlier.
Donald Trump may have more delegates than any other candidate in the race so far, but he’s yet to secure the majority needed in order to secure the nomination outright. Looking forward, two states stand in his way, Ohio and Florida, which just happen to be the homes of Governor John Kasich and Florida Senator Marco Rubio, repectively.
Should he lose those states, as he did in Ted Cruz’s home state of Texas, the math becomes incredibly difficult for Trump. In order to secure the 1,237 delegates necessary to win on the first ballot of the convention, he would have to win about 70% of the remaining delegates.
Considering he hasn’t yet come close to that number, should he lose both states this Tuesday, a brokered convention is all but guaranteed.
This hasn’t been lost on party officials, who see a brokered convention as the last, best hope for stopping Trump from getting the nomination. See what they can do to snatch the nomination from Trump on the next page:
It is the will of the people
RNC sounds like a bunch of crooks
AND SINCE TRUMPS AHEAD ALL THE REP. THAT SUPPORT HIM WILL STILL SUPPORT HIM IF THIS HAPPENS AND IT WILL TARE THE REP. PARTY APART MAYBE THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN TO GET THE RNC,S ATTENTION…NOTHING ELS SEEMS TO WORK
He’s got security. The best money can buy. But he still might need to amp it up even more. He is a very hated man right now, and I’m sure it has crossed his mind more than once.
That edges on being a criminal offence. What are they going to do when all Trumps followers vote him in no matter what party.
Wow these fools are really pushing it. Very dumb to go against the will of the Base
We ask God to intervene for his will to be done in Jesus name!
One of the most difficult things to do is stop a chain of dominoes after the first one falls. Our eyes are directed to the actual event of the process of each domino falling onto another and another and another, and our reaction is far to slow to save the next domino from falling. The key is to look far enough ahead to block or remove dominoes so the entire chain does not fall.
This is the situation our country is currently dealing with, Obama has set in motion the chain of events that will destroy our nation. The left and the media are trying to keep us focused on the falling dominoes instead of focusing on a solution. We need a leader now more than ever to come up with a solution and when you see the media, and every candidate from both parties along with George Soros focusing on Trump, trying to destroy him understand why, they want you to focus on the dominoes as they fall. Trump is focused on the road ahead and stopping the fall. For those that are informed Trump is the only logical choice right now.
Prayer’s for Donald Trump for President 2016 God Bless.
I’m not a trump zombie, but if that happens you are gonna see alot of even more pissed off people.
