Trump Gains Advantage in Battle for GOP Delegates Through Outreach and Rule Changes
- Donald Trump has been focused on winning delegates through outreach to state party leaders and hosting delegations.
- State Republican parties have made rule changes that benefit Trump as the frontrunner, including more winner-take-all contests.
- Trump's team seems more prepared for the delegate process than in 2016, while some other campaigns lag behind.
- Changes like shifting from primaries to party-run caucuses tend to benefit Trump's delegate strategy.
- While Ron DeSantis's team has veterans from Ted Cruz's 2016 campaign, Trump's years of groundwork give him an edge.
