Many things have happened since that last blog I added. People have dropped out and new alliances have been formed. One of which being Chris Christie the Governor of New Jersey. He announced his support for Trump earlier in the race not long after he had dropped out.
Other candidates from the Republican Presidential race have also dropped out. Both Ben Carson and Marco Rubio left the face. Rubio left after losing his state of Florida to Donald Trump. Ben Carson dropped out because of his lack of support. But it didn't take long for Carson to give support to the Trump campaign as well. A for Marco Rubio and other establishment Republicans, they have refused to completely give their support to the candidate in the lead, whom as of right now is Donald Trump.
The candidates remaining for the Republican side are Donald Trump with 736 delegates has the most and is the lead for the republican primary. That lead almost doubles the person who comes in second place as of right now. The second person in the standings is Ted Cruz who is also not a favorite in the republican establishment with 463 delegates. The third person who is way behind the other two candidates is John Kasich who was 143 delegates. also Kasich has less candidates then Rubio when he dropped out.
Both of the remaining candidates on the democratic side are still running. Even though Clinton had a substantial lead on Sanders, he still has a chance if he were to sweep multiple states coming up. But in my prediction the next candidates to advance to the general election are going to be Clinton, and Trump as they are sweeping the nation by storm.
What do you think?
ReplyDeleteHow does this relate to AP Gov?
