“So Mr. back East, elitist, billionaire can’t make the time to even consider us toothless yokels in the flyover states and somehow that’s OUR problem?”
I saw a facebook post by a gal that was all new to the process in Colorado. She gave a long, detailed account that she posted on Larry’s facebook page (the guy that didn’t attend his county assembly/caucus).
Anyway - this gal heard about the “precinct caucus” (what’s that!?) and ends up as a delegate to state. She said some local politicians gave some speechs - and then Cruz showed up and gave a speech. She said it was okay. She said there were some Trump supporters - and felt that if Trump had shown up he could have brought a lot of enthusiasm to everyone.
She said that a few Trump supporters were elected as alternates to go to the National.
That is a point that the Trump supporters would like to ignore. They want everyone to believe that all Trump supporters were deliberately excluded from the process. But the Cruz campaign was just able to get MORE of their supporters to attend and vote for delegates that supported him than the Trump camp.
