Virginian Carroll Correll Jr promised to support the candidate who the voters of Virginia have chosen and when it turned out to be Donald Trump, he wanted to get out of it. Please remember, he asked for and was granted the privilege of representing the voters at the GOP convention, understanding that obligation and that, only in the event no candidate were to achieve the necessary majority and the convention became contested could he exercise his free will.
He even said he would risk being arrested than vote for Trump.
But what he did will speak volumes and not in a right way. Hopefully, he's removed as a delegate as he has chosen not to support the will of the voters he promised to uphold.
From TheBullElephant:
A federal judge today found that the law establishing Virginias presidential primary, which took effect for the first time in 2000, impermissibly conflicts with the Rules of the Republican Party, and thus has enjoined its application to the 2016 Virginia delegation to the Republican National Convention.Judge Robert Payne, sitting in the Eastern District of Virginia (Richmond), held that the statute cannot be used to block efforts by Beau Correll, an RNC delegate from Virginias 10th Congressional District), and others who wish to vote for someone other than presumptive nominee Donald Trump.
Ruling provides a victory for groups seeking to allow delegates to the Republican National Convention to vote "unbound" and for a candidate other than Donald Trump.
Here is the entire argument if you want to scroll through it.
Correll Opinion by Steve Albertson on Scribd
Donald Trump was against the war in Iraq, he is against Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Trump is against bringing in refugees who can't be screened, he wants to close the border to terrorists and OTM's as well as drug cartel and human smugglers. He wants corporations to stay in America, keeping jobs here for college graduates and people working 2 and 3 jobs. Trump is working to keep America safe. What more could all of us in America want. Maybe we can become a united America once again when people are working and happy. Hillary is a fraud and a liar. What more is there to say. She could be very dangerous as president. Ask the FBI about that.
This Correll guy said no to all of this. What do you think should happen to this guy?

All those wasted tax dollars and time spend organizing an election for nothing. It’d be more effective to grab a handful of homeless guys or thugs hanging on the street corner and tell them to pick a nominee because it’s obvious We the People don’t get to pick.
The Bull Elephant http://thebullelephant.com/ is a GREAT Virginia Politics site!

Yes, people should read the article there, which claims this decision will have no practical impact on the convention.
I see no reason to blame the judge.
Ban him from the convention.
Virginia Republican Party should immediately revoke his credentials.
The establishment will do anything to see that Trump doesn’t win.
And don’t count on the judges to be anything other than cronies of the establishment.
You and Marcellus!
Ted Cruz winning the general after his performance in the primary.
You’re not serious, are you?
Ted Cruz can win a general election?
He couldn’t even come close to winning in the primaries.
Do you really believe that the ones who voted for Trump will lay back their ears and vote for the Canadian?
You misunderstood - The question was who does the idiot in the article support - my answer was Dead Cruz. Cruz supporters are always saying that Trump didn’t know the rules.
I should have been clearer or used a /s tag
The whole #NeverTrump thing is actually #AllwaysCruz
I jumped on the Trump train pretty early
This pretty boy looks like the type that snitched on kids to the teacher over nothing.
Needs to be bolded.
See the reply above. I was accusing the guy in the article of this not advocating it myself
Speaking of dads. . .do we have any info/pic on Carroll Correll Sr.? This may be a like-father like-son scenario.

Unruh in Colorado and this jerk need to be cut out. Say no RNC card renewal with these jerks and the current rules. This damn RNC had best honor us voters or we’ll ditch them.
