AP TELEVISION - AP CLIENTS ONLY
Colorado Springs, Colorado - April 12, 2016
1. SOUNDBITE: (English) Joel Crank, GOP delegate for Ted Cruz:
"It's not like the rules have changed and had Donald Trump earned 34 delegates out of this, he wouldn't be upset at all. He would not be making this big stink.''
2. SOUNDBITE: (English) Joel Crank, GOP delegate for Ted Cruz:
"It's insulting to our voters and those of us who participate in the system and do it by the rules that Donald Trump would come out and attack what we have to say and the electorate of Colorado has provided but I guess I understand but I don't agree with Donald Trump's actions.''
3. SOUNDBITE: (English) Joel Crank, GOP delegate for Ted Cruz:
"Ted Cruz has had a very hard working and well put together campaign, which is something that the Trump campaign failed to do.''
4. SOUNDBITE: (English) Joel Crank, GOP delegate for Ted Cruz:
"His campaign approached me and said, `Would you like to be on the slate, on the Ted Cruz slate' and I said, `Well, of course, I would love the opportunity to support Ted Cruz.' And ultimately that was the deciding factor, the people of Colorado wanted to support Ted Cruz so they voted for the slate put forth by the Cruz campaign.''
5. SOUNDBITE: (English) Joel Crank, GOP delegate for Ted Cruz:
"My vote is a done deal in the sense that I will be voting for Ted Cruz. I promised to the (Colorado) 5th Congressional District from Colorado, that I would Ted Cruz and I was elected not for my own views but to support Ted Cruz and I will do that. I'm a representative of the people. I'm not there to represent myself.''
STORYLINE:
High school senior Joel Crank, 18, is the youngest Republican Party delegate from Colorado.
He was one of 34 delegates awarded to Ted Cruz at the state's GOP assembly this past weekend in a process slammed by Donald Trump.
Crank said Cruz had a well put together campaign that asked for his support before the assembly, something that Trump's campaign failed to do.
He said Trump's reaction is insulting to voters and those who participate in the system and do it by the rules. Crank said his vote at the national convention is a done deal. He's supporting Cruz.
