Go ahead, Donald, get 1,237; it won't matter: RNC delegate

Donald Trump may be the only Republican presidential candidate who can realistically hit the magic 1,237 number for the majority of delegates, but according to a senior Republican National Committee official that does not mean he will become the GOP presidential nominee.

Curly Haugland, a longstanding RNC official and an unbound delegate from North Dakota who will be on the convention rules committee in July, told CNBC that attaining 1,237 during the primaries does not secure the nomination.

"Even if Trump reaches the magic number of 1,237 the media and RNC are touting, that does not mean Trump is automatically the nominee," Haugland said. "The votes earned during the primary process are only estimates and are not legal convention votes. The only official votes to nominate a candidate are those that are cast from the convention floor."



 
Trump is the ONLY candidate who will hit 1,237 but then consider this:

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/04/trumps-real-magic-number-is-less-than-1-237-222184

but of course we then must also flush this from our minds...

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/04/20/internal-campaign-memo-projects-trump-will-win-1400-delegates-at-gop-convention/

And that obviously targets legal immigration as well.

Pretty pathetic attempt at a red herring. I consider Trump and anyone else who assigns negative stereotypes to an entire class of people (rapists) purely based on their belonging to that class as a bigot. Has nothing to do with their stance on immigration law.

If nothing else, this bodes well for a third party reality next time around.  But with the inherent short attention span and low information of the electorate, this window of opportunity will be very short.

We should be so lucky, but I'll do what I can.

 
I guess I should have added that both sides in play until the end, not just one or the other.  Although the dem side may be over.  We have to wait to see what Bernie is going to do next.  Tuesday should be revealing.

When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

The same can be said when Castro opened his jails and sent the worst of the worst to the US.  We didn't complain that they were Cubans.  It was about who they were as individuals.

But I will accept your correction as it is technically correct.  The discussion has morphed significantly since June 16th.

Yes, won in the GOP NY primary. The most Hispanic voters. Thank you.

The article tortures its statistics to make that claim, which on the face of it isn't accurate—3/4 of Hispanics vote Democratic, so no Trump did not win the most Hispanic votes in the NY primary. This, for instance:

Despite calling for a “big, beautiful” wall at the Southern border (which Mexico will pay for), the deportation of all illegal immigrants, and labeling some Mexicans rapists and drug dealers, businessman Donald Trump won more than half of the GOP Hispanic vote in New York City, according to exit polls.

Mr. Trump won the Soundview, Castle Hill area in the Bronx with 100 percent of the vote, according to the New York Times vote tracker. That area has a relatively diverse population, primarily consisting of blacks and Latin Americans. In the Jackson Heights, Queens, area where many Hispanics reside, Mr. Trump won precincts ranging from 41 percent of the vote, to 87 percent of the vote, with most precincts clocking in above 60 percent for Mr. Trump.


The total Hispanic Republican population of these neighborhoods might fit in a single subway car. He got 100% of, like, the first three rows of seats. In the Soundview/Castle Hill neighborhood, for instance, he didn't even get 100% of the votes as reported, he got 4 out of 7 votes cast. You can check yourself at the source the WT claims to have used.

If you're expecting someone who has constantly demonized and insulted Hispanics running for the nomination of a party that has done everything in its power to alienate Hispanic voters for the last 10 years to inspire Hispanics to vote for him you've spun yourself dizzy.
