party bosses fix a square state
Ted Cruz tweets:
Donald, over 1.3mm people just voted in UT, ND, WI, CO & WY. You lost ALL FIVE in a row, by huge margins. #NoWhining
Donald Trump tweets in response:
Lyin’ Ted Cruz can’t get votes (I am millions ahead of him) so he has to get his delegates from the Republican bosses. It won’t work!
Both right. I suppose. Masses of people voted in Wisconsin, but… how many people just voted in Wyoming? It’s not even within the right of the decimal point “point three”.
And here was Trump’s big plan to win the state.
While Trump continued campaigning in New York ahead of Tuesday’s primary, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin canceled her trip to Wyoming to stump for him at the convention. Instead, a local Trump-preferred delegate, Claire Powers, spoke for him.
She read a poem at the end of her speech that began, “Who do we want, Cruz or Trump?†The crowd interrupted her by shouting back — “Cruz!”
Does Wyoming love Palin?
It all ups to a good sojourn for Cruz, giving him a chance to vacation away from his wacky mis-adventures in New York City to more… shades brushy and thus welcoming environs.
In the 11th district, which includes parts of the Atlanta metropolitan area, former Rep. Bob Barr and former district chairman Scott Johnson, both Cruz supporters, were elected delegates along with current district chairman Brad Carver, who told POLITICO he’s neutral in the process.
