BREAKING: Contested Convention Almost Certain

On Breitbart News Daily Thursday morning, author John Yob warned the GOP will only select its nominee after a contested convention in Cleveland, Ohio in July.

“It’s a hundred precent certain in my mind to be a contested convention,” said Yob, who recently authored Chaos: The Outsider’s Guide to a Contested Republican National Convention.

“It’s hard or impossible to get to 1,237 allocated delegates,” Yob continued. “As a result of that, you won’t know the results until the first ballot. So I would say it’s 100 percent likely to be a contested convention. That doesn’t mean it’s 100 percent likely to be a multi-ballot convention.”

Yob also disputed the notion put forth by RNC member Randy Evans that Trump could secure the nomination with only 1,100 delegates.

We are using this election at a teaching moment in my home. The biggest question from my children and the hardest thing to explain is the delegates. It is funny, they just assumed the people voted for the president.

That being said, it is not impossible to not go to a brokered convention. All of this talk is imo just trying to jar the average voter.
