A Look at Trump’s Delegates

Written by Nick Field, Managing Editor

Donald Trump is beginning to assemble a group of potential delegates for the PA primary.

As we’ve discussed before, Pennsylvania has a very unusual allocation process for its 71 delegates in the GOP race. Seventeen go to the statewide winner while fifty-four are assigned by congressional district. Those 54, however, are not bound to the district winner, the state winner or any specific candidate. Basically, they can vote for whoever they want.

A new unofficial website has compiled a list of the candidates running to be delegates who support Trump’s campaign or would support him if he wins their district. That list is presented below:

Lynne Ryan – 3rd Congressional District

James Keffalas – 3rd Congressional District

Daniel Vete – 3rd Congressional District

Matthew Jansen – 4th Congressional District

Marc Scaringi – 4th Congressional District

Joseph Sacco – 4th Congressional District

James Klein – 5th Congressional District

Arnold McClure – 5th Congressional District

Wayne Buckwalter – 6th Congressional District

Vicki Lightcap – 6th Congressional District

Jan Ting – 7th Congressional District

Ralph Wike – 7th Congressional District

Sean Shute – 8th Congressional District

Debra Taylor – 9th Congressional District

Cody Knotts – 9th Congressional District

John Wells – 10th Congressional District

Ryan Belz – 10th Congressional District

Mark Stoicheff – 10th Congressional District

Marlene Loose – 11th Congressional District

Richard Morelli – 11th Congressional District

Andrew Shecktor – 11th Congressional District

Gabriel Keller – 12th Congressional District

Joseph Matthew Sernell – 12th Congressional District

Christopher Fromme – 12th Congressional District

James Vasilko – 12th Congressional District
