Quote:That has nothing to do with what I'm talking about.  Certain delegates can make their FIRST choice something other than what the people in their district voted for.  That makes 0 sense if this is a democracy.

Actually, I don't think that's the case.

 

The delegates won by Donald are committed to voting for him on the FIRST ballot at the convention.

 

It's the second ballot where it gets interesting.  If Donald doesn't get a majority, then it's open game after the opening formalities.

 

If Donald wanted, he could have run as an independent and skipped all these rules.  He knew what he was signing up for when he ran for the party's nomination.*

 

 

 

 

 

 

*except he probably didn't.  Maybe we shouldn't elect such a plodding dolt.
