As I understand it from listening to WLS today, the vote for the GOP presidential candidate means NOTHING. It is the votes for their corresponding delegate that counts. True?
If so, I will vote for Fred (a feel good vote) but select the Romney delegates.

I don’t know about the Illinois Republican delegate count- but some states do it the way you outlined.
