Posted by joshnorris14 They're county conventions to elect the delegates to the state convention later in the month are being held tomorrow night. Santorum's 14 committed delegates are now uncommitted so Paul is, in all likelihood, going to steal Romney's home state. Reply Back to Top |
| That would be huge, but I won't hold my breath. I was happy to help him win Louisiana, though. Reply Back to Top |

| It appears the 16 Paulites selected in Mass won't be able to help him unless Romney is denied a first ballot win at the Convention. That must be the primary goal (pun not intended). Will Paul's supporters have a chance to change party rules to unbound the delegates from the Mass primary or do they not have a strong enough majority or are the Mass GOP party rules not permit this?

quote: In Texas, .52% (or some hundredth decimal place similar to that) = 1 delegate. In California, delegates are awarded by Congressional District. In total, over 300 delegates are awarded. The Paul supporters are hoping to take over the Texas State Convention though. Reply Back to Top Refresh |
