2016 elections - because it's never too early

[Phillip V]

NYTimes is projecting Trump won 89 delegates and Kasich 3!

Trump 90, Kasich 5, Cruz 0

Good job, 12th district!

Yi, does this make New York a retard state too?

[Martinus]

Apparently in some districts Ben Carson got more votes than Cruz.

Staten Island has 80% for Trump

[Martinus]

Good job, 12th district!

The advantage there for Kasich is miniscule.

[Zanza]

So it looks more and more likely that the two candidates with very poor net favorability ratings will be the candidates. I would expect a historically poor turnout in that case.

I am more cheering that there's any advantage for someone non-Trumpian there.

Oh there's no doubt - the GOP is going to get destroyed in November.

And against Hillary - a candidate with such astronomically high negatives.

Yes, that sounds about right for the Isle of Staten.

It may drive up the turnout as people turn out to hate vote against the other candidate. We have no idea, this election is unprecedented.

[Martinus]

Hillary gets indicted or there is a terrorist attack on US soil and say hello to President Trump. 

[Martinus]

Jaron told me that for some reason all posts from Hillary's campaign on his Facebook wall appear in Spanish.

I'm going to hold with the "just short of 1237" prediction, and on the second ballot, Trump probably loses at least 30-40% of his delegates.  If Cruz really is the scheming/organizing genius that he is portrayed to be, he might just grab it all before it even goes to a 3rd.

I'm with 'just short of 1237 but picks up enough delegates to win on the first ballot'.

After watching MSNBC's delegate-analysis dude, I may change my prediction.  Things actually look fairly favorable for Trump (unless the RNC pulls off some shenanigans).
