The #NeverTrump Delegate Slate

Written by Nick Field, Managing Editor

The prospect of Donald Trump accepting the GOP Presidential nomination in Cleveland this July has some Republicans panicking.

This #NeverTrump movement is seeking to deny the New Yorker a victory on the convention’s first ballot. If that were to happen, more delegates would be free to vote for their own personal choice and Trump’s odds of victory would dramatically decrease.

In Pennsylvania, of course, 54 of the state’s 71 delegates are unbound. Nevertheless, the Trump and Cruz campaigns have released official slates of candidates they believe will support them in Cleveland.

The #NeverTrump movement also has a slate.

“We recommend the following candidates for Delegate in each Congressional district,” they write. “Each of these candidates supports Ted Cruz or John Kasich for president, or is clearly uncommitted.”

Their list is included below:
