Ted Cruz supporters took all 13 of the delegates up for grabs at the Colorado GOP Convention on Saturday to complete a clean sweep of the state.
But it was not without controversy.
The Cruz camp and GOP establishment leaders strong-armed their way to a sweep by banning Trump delegates and omitting them from the ballots… and listing Cruz delegates TWICE!
They even listed their candidates twice on the ballots.
Cruz' crowd take delegates hostage by threatening to stalk them in Cleveland, giving opponents delegate room and cell phones to terrorize them!
Wrong, forgot, this wasn't Cruz campaign, it was the Trump campaign that is now under Federal investigation!
Trump chutzpah has Manafort calling Cruz Campaign using Gestapo tactics - huh???
Get real Paul Manafort!
OH WENDLE, you sicken me and probably many others on this website — except for the dear Trump partisans. The Colorado election was held IN THE SAME EXACT MANNER IT WAS HELD IN 2012.
And if that’s not enough, the way the election was to be held has been known for MONTHS. The complaining, whining, bitching and moaning of the Trump supporters on this website HAS BEEN TOTALLY PATHETIC. And I mean pathetic. Many of the Trump folks here are just like their mentor — his nastiness and sense of victimization is rubbing off. Did you cry about the Colorado results in 2012? If not, then quit crying.
There’s not a word about Missouri delegates in this excerpt, if that’s what it is. It’s about Colorado.
Yawn - nothing to see here - the system is just fine — ask any Cruzite....
I spoke with an individual who explained it thusly:
People can be both State and Congressional District delegates, although they are different things. The people on the first document were all the "winners" of those particular spots. However, paperwork was turned in (see the second document) by the local caucus chair (a Cruz supporter) to the GOP removing the winners of the congressional district positions, and replacing them all.
It seems like this might be real evidence of theft. The person I spoke to is involved with caucusing in that state and also claims there are "hundreds of irregularities," and, "without exception, they result in Cruz getting the delegate."
After DJT’s June announced candidacy, The colorado cabal quickly changed the rule to block any voting by the people because they saw that Trump would WIN. The Chairman of the Cabal made blatantly Anti- Trump statements ( See Drudge) and it is an absolute fact the the cabal BRAGGED about handing the state to Cruz as part of the #WEstoppedtrump on twitter. This was a disenfranchisement of the people that violates the basic tenants of our constitution. I understand there are demonstrations today but know this WE WILL REMEMBER COLORADO.
OK well if it is illicit theft then I hope there is a legal process where the evidence can be presented and remedy pushed on behalf of the voters. But if it’s legal theft then I suppose the closest thing to a moral remedy is to appeal to Cruz to disavow it. And if he will not then challenge his supporters about supporting him.
All that said, I was going off the explanation of someone else. I don’t know the rules well enough to tell if there is theft of whatever kind going on. Someone who is an expert and objective ought to look it over.
Agreed on not being sure that this is for real. Would also like to see what an objective expert in the process determines. Gateway pundit is good as far as bloggy news sites go, but I am not sure they are expert in this and I am thinking they are inclined to be less careful vetting things negative about Cruz.
