Examples of Conventions in a Sentence

1. Matt Micheli:

   It's a system that encourages people to be engaged and to be involved, it works. Thus far, the system has favored Cruz, who netted nine pledged delegates at Wyoming’s county conventions last month. Donald Trump gained only one. Marco Rubio, still in the race at the time, also secured a delegate. Another was elected unpledged. Ohio Gov. John Kasich, banking on a brokered convention, is not expected to fare well in Wyoming. But John Kasich campaign will still be meeting with delegates in hopes they can convince them to eventually vote for John Kasich beyond a first ballot in Cleveland.

2. Speaker John Boehner:

   The Congress is very concerned about taxpayer funding of political activities, this provision was worked out in a bipartisan way to allow those who are organizing conventions the opportunity to raise the money from private sources as opposed to using taxpayer funds.

3. John Kasich:

   The Republicans have had 10 conventions like this and only three times has the person going into the convention with the most delegates won.

4. Donald Trump:

   Initial polls conducted after the Democratic National Convention suggest that Hillary Clinton has received a convention bounce. In fact, it appears likely that Clinton’s bounce will exceed Donald Trump’s, whichmeasured at 3 to 4 percentage points. Thus, Clinton will potentially exit the conventions in a stronger position than she entered them, perhaps also making up for some of the ground she lost to Trump earlier in July. This is good news for Clinton, but we’ll need to wait a few weeks to see if she can sustain her bounce before we can conclude that the race has been fundamentally changed.

5. Penn State University:
