Quote:But what else are you supposed to do if a majority of delegates refuse to vote for the guy? What are you supposed to do if he has 45% of the votes on the first ballot, but he just cannot get a majority? The other 55% of the delegates should be free to vote for whomever they want to vote for.

Well, that's a good question, and in most countries a two party system as ours doesn't exist. In those democratic countries, the plurality wins, but concessions are made to the other parties that also had a respectable portion of the vote.


If trump maintains his plurality, he should win and then make concessions to the Cuban Canadian, kasich, and Rubio.


But if trump wins a plurality and does not become the nominee, then you really didn't have a democratic primary, not from a strict political science point of view.


The plurality winner should make the runner up the vp candidate, or whatever concession the second place candidate is looking for.
