Including last night, that some 70% of voters in these states say the one who goes into that convention with the most votes and the most delegates should be the nominee even if he doesnt have a majority. what are they missing? >> well, first of all, i would say that a majority of republican voters dont want donald trump to be their nominee. and 1,237 delegates represents the majority of the delegates in that convention. so if you cant win 1,237 delegates, then you dont have the majority of your ...
