Cruz Admits Contested Convention Could Fracture the Party

‘I’ve got a ton of delegates and Donald has a ton of delegates — we’re going to have a battle — and the danger of a contested convention is that the party emerges fractured’

CRUZ: "Now there is no doubt that if we get to Cleveland, and I’ve got a ton of delegates and Donald has a ton of delegates. We’re going to have a battle. And the danger of a contested convention is that the party emerges fractured. What I can tell you is that if I earn the support of the majority of the delegates there, and I believe that’s what’s going to happen, then we are going to work very, very hard to welcome every single Trump supporter, and I will say, if you look at the issues that have energized and animated the Trump supporters, they have been illegal immigration, and losing jobs overseas. Fortunately, both of those issues are right at the heart of my campaign."
