CNBC reported:
Political parties, not voters, choose their presidential nominees, a Republican convention rules member told CNBC, a day after GOP front-runner Donald Trump rolled up more big primary victories.
“The media has created the perception that the voters choose the nomination. That’s the conflict here,” Curly Haugland, an unbound GOP delegate from North Dakota, told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Wednesday. He even questioned why primaries and caucuses are held.
Haugland is one of 112 Republican delegates who are not required to cast their support for any one candidate because their states and territories don’t hold primaries or caucuses.
Even with Trump’s huge projected delegate haul in four state primaries Tuesday, the odds are increasing the billionaire businessman may not ultimately get the 1,237 delegates needed to claim the GOP nomination before the convention.

Uh huh, and they had better remember that's it We The People who decide whether it will be the Ballot Box, or the Cartridge Box, in the end. They had best choose wisely, for at this point, a great many people already have their cartridge boxes in their hands, waiting to see if they will be needed should the ballot boxes be taken from them.

Like someone I posted yesterday said in so many words, if you think the Chicago riots were bad, you ain't seen nothing yet if Trump is cheated.
