I like that, it's about all he's good for. :-)
brilliant.
Amen.
You still need a picture ID to get into the Dem convention.
“Without an efficient (Prob electronic) method of polling votes, they are both limited to voice votes and subjective interpretation of the results.”
The Republican one wasn’t subjective - it was obvious the no vote was louder - twice - and it was obvious they called it the way they wanted it, plus they refused to do a role call vote as required by the rules. That vote will effectively throw out conservative and Tea Party participation in the future. That is much more damage than the Democrat fake vote to put words back in resolutions.
The intelligent thing to do is store water and food as neither party can prevent what is coming.
“A less time consuming process would be to caucus and vote.”
The way role call votes are taken at a convention is this: If it’s a state convention, the county chair of each county passes out slips for his/her delegates to mark. Then, the chair totals the votes and reports it to the designated person who is recording the vote of all counties.
At a national convention, the state chairman of each state uses the county chairman of each county to collect those votes and the state total is given to the state chairman to report that vote to the person recording all the states’ vote.
This system has been in place for many years and has worked well. The process was ignored by the Republican Party and the Democrat Party because they were going to have it their way no matter what.
Thanks, Foolsgold, that’s great!
BINGO!! It’s not who VOTES....it’s who COUNTS the votes, that matter.
