” By the way, most of the counties had no Precinct conventions because of the late primary.”

Ah, that explains it. Kind of stunning that knowing the usual process counted for nothing if you missed the small print. I’m blaming no one but myself, just saying.

So how were COUNTY delegates selected? The county convention is usually fairly closed but for delegates already first selected at the precinct level.

Without the precinct electing delegates, who composed the county convention I wonder?

BTW, congratulations to all the delegates, sincerely, especially those who will reject the socialist at the top of our GOPE ticket and all the RINOS who helped put him there, with their big cash, pals & connections, quiet support, and utter rejection of EVERYONE of the conservative candidates who were kept soundly and broke and some openly mocked. :)

Guess it will be a Romney coronation in Texas. Yuk. Wouldn’t spend a dime to enable that outcome.

I am rooting for all cogs to be thrown into the Establishment wheel and that of their candidate to get this stopped. This will get worse in the future if we prop up Romney. The Party is dead to me.

I called the County Chairman months ahead of the primary & county convention. The process was “fluid” because of the election delays over re-districting. We had a series of email and phone exchanges. He knew this one had stirred the fire in my belly because of the tactics that GOPe were using.

I live in a county where there are few Republicans, has always been so since it was settled. (is changing)

I registered Republican out of college and voted for Richard Nixon with my first ballot for president. (voting age then was 21 and colleges did not like students voting & did not make it easy)
