Since Hillary or Sanders would be the option yes.
It isn't that I would vote Rep no matter what, it is that Hillary and Sanders are much worse than trump.
Who would I vote for, Truman?

You realize there are more than two parties, right?

I realize that voting for one of them is as effective as refusing to vote, do you?

I dont know what nutsucker slobber blog you got that off of, but it is not correct.

It is winner take most, You dont get 20% in the congressional district, you get nothing.

This is certainly not the same as it was in 2012.

Tuesday 1 March 2016: All 76 of Georgia's delegates to the Republican National Convention are bound to presidential contenders in today's Presidential Primary.

42 district delegates bound to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the 14 congressional districts: each congressional district is assigned 3 National Convention delegates.
If a candidate receives a majority of the vote (more than 50%), that candidate is allocated all 3 of the district's delegates.
If no candidate receives a majority of the vote, the candidate with the most votes (plurality) receives 2 delegates and the candidate receiving the next highest number of votes receives 1 delegate. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(3)]
34 statewide delegates (10 base at-large, 21 bonus, plus 3 RNC delegates) are bound to presidential contenders according to the statewide vote. A mandatory 20% threshold is required for a presidential contender to receive National Convention delegates. If no candidate receives 20%, the threshold is 15%, if no candidate receives 15%, the threshold is 10%. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(4)]
If a candidate receives a majority of the vote (more than 50%), or only 1 candidate meets the threshold, that candidate is allocated the 34 statewide delegates.
If no candidate receives a majority of the vote then, for each candidate receiving the threshold or more of the vote, delegates = [the number of votes received by that candidate] × [31 statewide delegates] ÷ [the statewide vote for those candidates received the threshold or more]. Each candidate receives the whole number of delegates (that is, round down to the whole number). If delegates remain, award them to the candidate receiving the most votes statewide (not sure of rounding). [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(4)]
The 3 RNC party leader delegates, the National Committeeman, National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Georgia's Republican Party are bound to the candidate receiving the most votes statewide. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(4)]

Thats out of GA, not some nutsucker blog. But you go ahead with your slobber blog, and I will go with the rules for the republican party of georgia. I have NOT anywhere (since you are so good at toiletlicking your lying propaganda) said this is winner take all, but a rose by any other name...........again, the next fucking shitbreather in line after the winner gets as much as like 14? cuz three are pledged to the winner free and clear, and of course the 32 or so SUPER-DELEGATES are working the national machine. So if the pants shitters think their breath smells too much like shit, they will use superdelegates to lift trump off the toilet with their tongues.

So you get at best your second place delegates, but if you dont have 20% when it counts at national, those delegates go away. So, other than innumerates, do the math. The reality is different than the hype, they get the delegates to count for now, to jazz up this fucking clown show, but they probably dont get to keep them, unless they grab 20% of the entire nutsucker vote in the state.

All this is just more nutsucker pants shitting, and felch gob swallowing, since NONE of these fucking idiots on the nutsucker slate will be elected dogcatcher in the General Election.

As long as people think like this we'll be stuck with the two party system we currently have. 5% of the vote could change quite a bit.

Your cite says the EXACT same thing as mine for the rules of the nomination. Perhaps you'd like to document a difference, little gnome?

Second, you contested that there are more than 8 WTA states. (which I allowed might be 1-2 off) - and quoted sources that listed georgia as a WTA state; as well as states that awarded by congressional district as being WTA. Your source - and you - said 20(+) wta.

Awarding by CD is not WTA; Georgia is an example of another state that has variable triggers and thus should be qualified as a hybrid system, not wta. Your source was wrong; you were wrong.

I submit, looking at the rules and numbers, the available candidates to get are going to go pretty much to the idiot trump.
