May 3, 2016 Indiana Presidential Primary – Discussion

indiana-votes-2016-primary-02052016Today we have the Presidential primary in Indiana, an important one in the final countdown to the Presidential nominations.

Indiana has 57 Republican delegates. Indiana is basically a “Winner Takes All” state. Thirty of the 57 delegates will be given to the winner of the May 3 primary — committed to vote for that candidate for the first ballot. But the other 27 delegates will be awarded to the winner of each congressional district, three per district. The larger the winning margin, the more delegates can be garnered by the state winner.

IF YOU LIVE IN INDIANA, PLEASE VOTE!

The Indiana Republican primary is open.

Real Clear Politics has a good summary of the Republican Party primaries/caucuses: RCP Republican Primaries.

Here are the latest Real Clear Politics polls for Indiana. Trump has a lead, although a small one. UPDATE: Latest RCP average has Trump up +10.8.

    Beck is becoming even crazier. He might need all ropes, pills, firearms and sharp objects removed before tonight’s results start coming in.

      Beck uses both emotional and religious manipulation to woo and influence his audience, I think today the rubber meets the road for him. IMO Beck is mentally unbalanced, but he is also a fraud and aware that he is manipulating people for his own financial gain.

      I suspect Beck is going change tactics and say that Donald Trump is God’s punishment on our Godless society and the best way to safeguard oneself against the coming horsemen is to buy stuff from Beck endorsed companies.

      Pffttt….

        Good analysis lovely! You might also include Limbaugh, even though he has not endorsed any candidates in the primary. Trumps presidency has the potential to rank second too Reagan’s.

          Hi Col. 🙂 I believe Trump has the opportunity to rank first if he turns our economy around, stops illegal predators from entering our country and boots a good portion of them out, ends birthright citizenship, slams the doors on the Muslim refugees and takes the fight to Islam across the pond rather than waiting for them to come here, Trump will have performed nothing short of a miracle in saving the free world, (for the time being anyhow 😉 ) .

          Ah… but I am a dreamer?

        Personally, I think Beck has hurt Cruz with some who may have voted for him. Most Christians do not believe the Mormon religion is a Christian Church and to have Beck lecturing them while on stage with Cruz turned them off to both of them.

    Sounds like the RNC is backing down, and throwing the #NeverTrump people under the bus:
