The California Republican Convention is just one week away and the fury to get ready for next Friday and the June 7 primary is underway.
On the same day that Donald Trump hosted a rally in Delaware claiming the primary system is rigged and the only way to knock out his opponents is with votes, his campaign launched a California-wide call urging Independents in the state to register Republican.
With California's primary vote less than two months away and contests still not decided, the Golden State has become a strategic hot spot for presidential campaigns.
"Time is short and every vote counts," Trump said in the phone message. "I want your vote and I want to make America great again."
Trump's phone call campaign comes one week before California's Republican Convention. All three Republican candidates seeking the party's nomination are scheduled to attend.
But Republican activist Craig Deluz said most super PAC supporters do not back Trump. Deluz also said Trump's efforts to win California may be too little, too late.
"He is not consistent with the values of Republicans, the Republican Party platform or in general the Republican agenda and I think that in the long-run he is going to have a very difficult time in California," Deluz said.

Trump is scheduled to give the keynote address at the Republican Convention kick-off banquet scheduled for next Friday at the Hyatt Regency in Burlingame.
