Polls show Ohio and Florida are very close. It's important to remember that Florida is a closed primary, so Trump won't draw in many of his voters.

If Trump doesn't win both, his path to 50% is very, very difficult. The system was designed to bump the party favorite from 40 to 50 in a rousing coronation-type convention.

But what if it's a 45-30-20-5 situation and the party doesn't want the 45? The system makes it very difficult for the leader.
