Donald Trump is now just a handful of delegates from truly clinching the GOP nomination


Looking only at bound delegates — those who have to vote for him at the convention — Trump needs only about 28 percent of the remaining delegates to clinch the nomination. Trump will win New Jersey and California, at the least giving him more than enough bound delegates to clinch without any gymnastics. Per Nichanian's count, that would add 23 delegates to Trump's total — and put him over the 1,237 delegates he needs to clinch. Donald Trump speaks during a rally in Eugene, Ore. (AP Photo/Ted S. Warren)Somewhat amazingly, Donald Trump has managed to get this close to clinching the Republican nomination before voting on June 7 in California and New Jersey, the two biggest remaining states. Trump won't win every delegate in Washington state, which held its primary Tuesday, thanks to the state's weird rules.
