April 26 GOP Predictions

The states for Tuesday are very similar to  New York and I used the New York results and poll data from each state (except Rhode Island which used Delaware polling). Trump should win every state since they are low turnout blue states which allows Trump to win all the states, but not necessarily all the delegates.  Whether or not Trump reaches a majority on the first ballot is still a little to variable for me to make a definite call on the nomination. The only thing I know about a contested convention is that it will probably get messy and unpredictable.  Kasich should come in second in most states because most conservatives in blue states vote for Trump. All of these states should have very similar outcomes because they have very similar demographics.
