Two of the three people on the slate the Trump campaign was trying to organize their people to vote for weren't on the official ballot, which was public before tonight but the Trump people did not know. Apparently the delegates/campaign didn't file the right paperwork/pay the fee/some logistical error. They might have other supporters who they could unite behind, but I imagine Cruz is going to swamp him again.

He very well still might be the nominee, but if he had spent a couple million dollars a few months ago on hiring three people who knew what they were doing/let them each hire a handful of people who knew what they were doing/let them each hire a handful of people who knew what they were doing, he would be in an overwhelmingly strong position right now. What a clownshoes operation.

The Cruz slate won

The Nightman Cometh wrote:The betting markets are still severely underestimating Cruz's chance at the nomination and the Republican nominees chances in November, both paying out at over 2-1.

One group that is still with him includes those who describe themselves as both Republicans and supporters of the tea party movement. Sixty-eight percent of them have a favorable view.
