Greta: Is the Florida Primary NOT OVER?????

"See below what I received from FNC Carl Cameron! This is really wild! More possible Florida election problems?"

Tampa, FL — Florida’s primary might not be over just yet.

The Newt Gingrich campaign is gearing up to challenge the results of the florida primary based on the Republican National Committee’s own rules which state that no contest can be winner take all prior to April 1, 2012. (See attached RNC memo.)

The Gingrich campaign plans to challenge Florida’s winner take all status & demand proportional allocation of delegates.

Fox News has learned that Thursday, a Florida Gingrich campaign official will begin the process of trying to have the RNC rules enforced so that the Sunshine State delegates are proportionately allocated.

RNC Chairman Reince Priebus warned Florida Republican Party Chairman Lenny Curry of the violation in a December letter quoting the rule, “…’winner-take-all’ states cannot hold a primary or caucus before April 1, 2012.”

Awesome, but isn’t South Carolina winner take all? Or am I mistaken.

2 for each district, 11 statewide, 3 unpledged.

Romney carried only one CD for 2 delegates, 23 for Gingrich.
Actually Gingrich should probably be happy with 0 for 50. Better to be 0 for 50 than 2 for 100.

IA not penalized.
NH was entitled to 23 rather than 12.
SC was entitled to 50 rather than 28.
FL was entitled to 99 rather than 50.
NV not penalized
Northern Mariana Islands not penalized
AZ was entitled to 58 rather than 29.
MI was entitled to 59 rather than 30.
Super Tuesday 3/6.

NV not penalized at 28.

So, under this scenario, FL goes to the full 100?

Thankfully I don’t have a cat box, but I do have a cat barn and have to put them in at night.

Every now and then I’m expected to cook and clean. Dang it.

That’s funny, because I drove almost 10 carloads to different polling sites throughout the day... and know many others who did the same... of course that cut into our sitting-around-feeling-embarrassed-time considerably... it’s not too late to get involved, and come November, you won’t have to feel embarassed again...

“What I know for sure is that God does not necessarily call qualified men, He absolutely qualifies those He calls.”

Very True!

AND so is this...

“We battle not against flesh and blood, but evil.”

That is scripture.

"Drudge and Coulter now in talks about their next talking points from the establishment and the homosexuals in their log cabin who are so GOproud that they have to tell all of us how they take it."

I am so sick tonight. I live in Washington State and our Demon-crat governor, GAG-wire, who isn't going to run again, as one of her last acts said she would sign a bill for QUEER MARRIAGE. The Legislature wrote up a bill and they are voting on it tonight. They say they have enough votes to pass it with some of our RINO's voting for it.
