Lynne Ryan, Ash Khare, C Arnold McClure, Vicki Lightcap, Sean Shute, Joseph Lamantia, Tina Pickett, Mario Scavello, Richard Morelli, James Vasilko, Gilbert Cox, Lauren Casper, Tom Ellis, Scott Uehlinger, and John Petrarca all said they would vote for the district winner yet are on Trump's slate. Interestingly enough, Trump actually picks district winners or uncommitted instead of his own supporters in CD 3 and twice in CD 10 and CD 12.

Trump's slate makes a lot more sense to me than Cruz's actually. It looks like Trump is endorsing some district winner delegates in CDs where he doesn't have enough supporters, since a district winner is better than a certain Cruz supporter. Meanwhile, Cruz just left some CDs incomplete where he didn't have enough supporters. In addition, Trump filled up to 3 people per CD while Cruz put in over 3 people in two of the CDs, which could result in fewer votes between them. Am I missing something here or is Trump playing the delegate game better than Cruz in PA?

Saturday's delegates:
-Cruz loyalists won 36/37 available spots in Utah, with 1 delegate a wild card anti-Trump with unknown support. The other 3 spots are the RNC members we already knew about.
-Apparently all campaigns were shut out of getting loyalists selected in Kentucky (among the KY delegates are Matt Bevin, Rand Paul, and Mitch McConnell. Bevin supports Cruz, Paul is anti-Trump).
-The three delegates from SC-6 went 1 for Cruz, 1 for Kasich, and 1 Uncommitted.

Judd Gregg (Unbound Bush delegate supporting Kasich) is no longer attending the RNC, apparently in opposition to Cruz. The three alternates that former Bush campaign officers can replace him with are Melissa Stevens, Harry Crews, and Paul Speltz.

Jon Ralston says that Carson has released his 2 delegates from Nevada, which are now unbound.

Looks like some of Cruz's unbound delegates are wavering in North Dakota:
