Kasich on Nomination Race: ‘It’s a Bizarre Process’ (CNN)

Washington (CNN)Ohio Gov. John Kasich called the Republican presidential primary delegate process "bizarre" on Monday and said the Republican National Convention should adopt rules that would open up the nomination to more candidates.

He also reiterated his call for states to "move on" from passing so-called religious liberty laws, as well as commented on his faith and favorite pastimes during CNN's town hall moderated by Anderson Cooper, featuring Kasich's wife, Karen, and two daughters, Emma and Reese.

Asked about rival Ted Cruz's comments that the RNC should preserve a rule requiring that candidates get a majority of delegates in at least eight states -- Kasich called for an "open" convention, not a "closed" one.
