How many candidates will get at least 1 delegate voting for them in the vote today, I am guessing 5.7 candidates got delegate votes at the convention in 2012.

Do we have any updates on when the roll call is starting? The cable channels don't seem to be prepping for it.

Trump flew back to New York last night and stood up  a reception of his Trump Leadership Council (corporate donors).

I don't even care what happens; I just want to be able to make a map of something.

Since California delegates are unanimously pro-Trump might this be part of an elaborate plot to sabotage his nomination from #NeverTrump forces?

Wait, so will the votes for Cruz, Rubio, etc. still be announced by somebody even if they're not counted?

A map must be made!

guy on CNN is saying it looks like Cruz delegates will not get his name placed into nomination for the Roll Call so some states are potentially going to stage a walk out but the Trump/RNC whips are trying to stop that.

Maybe later today we'll actually get some substance, rather than just platitudes? I guess I'm asking too much.

As a New Yorker, let me apologize for being from the state that unleashed the fools known as Donald Trump and Chris Collins to a national political audience
