Cruz Spox on Whether Ted Will Drop out If He Loses Indiana: ‘Absolutely Not’

‘This contest is going all the way to the end of the process on June 7th, where we wrap up in California’

BLITZER: "If he loses, Ted Cruz loses in Indiana, tonight, will he drop out?" 
NEHRING: "No, absolutely not. We’re going all the way to June 7th and then going all the way to the Republican national convention. What’s important to note here is that, for Donald Trump to become the Republican nominee, most independent analysts agree that he can only do so on the first ballot, that’s his high water mark. On the second ballot, there’s an ex — how can he get to a majority of delegates? He’d have to win New Jersey, New Mexico, the entire west coast, Washington state, Oregon, he would also have to win California, as well, and he would have to win about 90% of the delegates in the state of West Virginia. That’s not likely to happen. It could happen but it’s not likely and that means this contest is going all the way to the end of the process on June 7th, where we wrap up in California."
