Hmm...Rules committee member on @MSNBC earlier suggests Trump gets the nod if slightly under 1237. If under 1000, contested convention.
Just got off phone w/ RNC Randy Evans: the 1237 number is NOT flexible, only that if Trump is close, can wrangle enough unbound delegates

This also suggests, for example, if Trump (or whoever) gets 1236, the convention moves to a second ballot.

@CHueyBurnsRCP If he's close to 1237, naive to think@realDonaldTrump won't be able to sway (thru whatever means) enough to win on 1st.

@bbodine18457@CHueyBurnsRCP I think with Manafort there is a good chance of this happening.
