In case you missed it, I wanted to flag this post over the weekend. I hate to say I told you so, but … well, we have more poll data which shows that substantial majorities of Republicans don’t think it’s okay to deny the nomination to the person who got the most votes. That doesn’t mean it won’t happen. But as I said earlier, you can have whatever rules you want. But the whole process depends on the perceived legitimacy of the process. And it seems pretty clear that a clear majority of Republican primary voters do not think this would be okay.
