Ted Cruz pulled out a strategic victory at Saturday’s Arizona Republican Party convention, nailing down a large majority of delegates to the national convention amid cheating accusations from backers of businessman Donald Trump.

“That’s where we’re going to have to be successful”, Cooper said.
The Cruz and Kasich campaigns issued statements Sunday saying they will divide their efforts in upcoming contests with Cruz focusing on in and Kasich devoting his efforts to OR and New Mexico.
After recently sweeping primaries held in Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware and Maryland, Trump pronounced himself the GOP’s “presumptive nominee”. He said. “We should reward them, not punish them”. That state votes June 7.
“You have two candidates in Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders which have reignited a group of people who have been disenfranchised and disappointed with the way Washington, D.C. and career politicians have run the country”, Lewandowski recently told CNN.
“Every person in this country should have the right to vote for whom they want to see as president of the United States and what they want to see the agenda, Democratic agenda, look like”, Sanders told The AP late Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton claimed wins over Bernie Sanders in Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland and DE, bringing her delegate count to 2,168, just 215 short of the total she needs to formally bag the Democratic nomination.
Asked if the campaign would be keeping more people on board if Sanders had a more likely path to the nomination, Weaver said it was unlikely that the dismissed staffers would be redeployed to general-election battleground states. His supporters are clearly looking for something in return: more half don’t think he should help Clinton unless she meets some of his conditions or don’t think he should help her at all. I stand with Hillary Clinton when she says, “if fighting for women’s healthcare and paid family leave and equal pay is playing the woman card, then deal me in”.
Mr Boehner said he and Mr Trump are “texting buddies” and he will vote for the property tycoon.
Clinton now has 2,151 delegates compared to Sanders’ 1,338.
“We don’t bend the rules based on the wins of the day”.
After Tuesday’s wins, both Clinton and Trump found themselves a giant step closer toward securing their parties’ presidential nominations.

Politico, which first reported the layoffs Wednesday, said Sanders’ fundraising has thus far remained strong.
