Question

[PresidentTRUMP]

Sorry, i tried finding a clear answer, but does anyone have a website where it breaks down which states are a winner take all delegates, which states you get delegates for coming in 2nd and 3rd and winning certain counties in states like Iowa and NH? And how the process works in depth?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! Looking at early states, there's not many delegates and its not winner take all, i know momentum is big in primaries but they seem overrated, compared to other states with a TON more delegates and some of them are winner takes all. No?

This is true. However, the early states are (collectively) pretty diverse and represent wide swaths of both parties' electorates.

Yeah, very true, just surprised how much is made of the early states when you look at how the breakdown goes.

With that said early state success usually results in the winner. May be one of the few times in history where the early winners on both sides don't end up with the nomination.

I could see Bernie winning 3 out of the 4 first states yet losing to Hillary for sure.

Also could see Cruz and Trump splitting the first 4 states (Cruz wins Iowa and Nevada and Trump wins NH and SC) and whoever comes out of that in 3rd place as the establishment choice (Christie, Rubio, Bush, Kasich) winning the nomination. Especially if the other 3 drop out after South Carolina and Nevada.
