GOP Rivals Collaborate to Deprive Trump of Delegates

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) _ Donald Trump’s Republican rivals are teaming up to deprive the GOP front-runner of the delegates needed to with the nomination.

John Kasich’s campaign says it’ll give Ted Cruz “a clear path in Indiana.” In return, the Cruz campaign will “clear the path” for Kasich in the Oregon and New Mexico primaries.

The arrangement does not address the five Northeastern states set to vote on Tuesday, where Trump is expected to add to his already overwhelming delegate lead.
