Viewer’s Guide: All in for Indiana, dialing delegates in PA

Donald Trump‘s support among Republicans has hit 50% on the eve of the final wave of presidential primaries, a new NBC News/SurveyMonkey poll out Tuesday shows. As much as his fans liked it, the statement is, strictly speaking, just not true. CT results will be posted on the secretary of state’s website, Delaware’s to the Department of Elections, Maryland’s to the State Board of Elections, Pennsylvania’s to the Department of State and Rhode Island’s to the secretary of state’s website. Ted Cruz and Gov. John Kasich might succeed against Donald Trump. While Clinton advisers say they won’t underestimate Trump, as many of his vanquished Republican rivals did, her campaign sees opportunities to not only energize Democrats in an effort to keep him out of the White House but also appeal to Republicans turned off by the brash billionaire. Rival Bernie Sanders’ team has sent mixed signals about his standing in the race, with one top adviser suggesting a tough night would push the Vermont senator to reassess his bid and another vowing to fight “all the way to the convention”. A freaky arrangement means that the remaining 54 delegates will be unbound at the convention in July, but the better a candidate does in the primary election the most hand-picked delegates he can send to the convention.

Instead of Clinton, Ndgo said she’d likely cast her ballot for Green Party candidate Jill Stein if Sanders isn’t on the ballot. They don’t trust Trump and say they’re skeptical that the agreement between Cruz and Kasich would lead to the nomination for either of them.

Trump will make his second visit to the state Wednesday for a rally in Indianapolis with in basketball legend Bobby Knight.

A sense of inevitability is growing around both the Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton campaigns, and they could easily build on that momentum this Tuesday.

In Indiana, the focus will be on the contest between Trump and Cruz.

Exit polls will offer new clues about whether primary voters are ready to coalesce around their parties’ leading candidates come November.

Democrats award delegates proportionally, which allowed Clinton to maintain her lead over Sanders even as he rattled off a string of wins in recent contests. It takes 2,383 delegates to win the Democratic nomination. Indiana’s most respected Republican voices have stayed neutral, and local conservative media haven’t picked sides ahead of the May 3 vote. “All you’ve got to is get the right number of delegates, and you win”.

In at least one state, the ultimate victor won’t be known until the convention.
