Does anyone know which delegates are for Newt on the Pennsylvania ballots? Our vote for president means nothing here, only the delegates we pick. And they are NOT marked on the ballot as to which candidate they’re supporting.
For instance, these are the delegates in Chester County and we have to pick 3:
JONATHAN HENRY SPADT
CURT SCHRODER
RYAN A COSTELLO
PHILIP G DUFFY
EDMUND W BENDER
SEAN LEBAN
BYRON WHITMAN
JANICE K KEARNEY
JIM GERLACH

This is pretty much how it goes in PA, according to the article:
All Republican delegates run in congressional districts uncommitted to any candidate even if they publicly or privately support someone.
“They are not bound to vote for any particular presidential candidate at the Republican National Convention,” says Mark Wolosik, Allegheny County elections director.
While Democratic voters see the name of the presidential candidate backed by a particular delegate, the same is not true for Republicans.
“Each party has its own rules in terms of selecting their delegates,” adds Wolosik.
While Republican voters will not be able to tell from the ballot which delegate candidate supports which candidate for president, the best that a Republican voter can do is call those campaigns or those delegate candidates to find out now which one supports which presidential candidate.

The article also says you could contact the delegates directly... Newt says he has a full slate of delegates pledged...
If you can't find out from PA sources, let me know...
The RNC is so biased... this is pathetic compared to how the dems give out their ballot info..
