Donald Trump supporters walked out of a delegate election in Georgia Saturday to protest a vote that robbed Trump of all of his slated delegates from a district that he won in the primary.
A Cruz-Rubio alliance at the district convention in Buford, Georgia helped to knock Trump supporters out of the districts national delegation altogether. Cruz supporters implied that Trumps people would embarrass the district at the convention in Cleveland. Then things got heated.
This morning, I attended Georgia 7th Congressional District GOP convention as a delegate and a Donald Trump supporter. We were there to elect the 3 delegates and 3 alternates to the national convention, Ronnie Kurtz told Breitbart News. Per the primary results, two slots were for Trump, and one was for Rubio. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)97% Cruz finished third in the primary and had no delegates allotted to him Nonetheless, the hall was stacked with Cruz delegates.
On the first ballot, the party voted on a delegate slate that would have taken away one of Trumps delegates but would have, at least, still given him one representative. That bloc would have given Trump supporter Debbie Dooley one of the slots and a Cruz supporter named Carolyn Fisher another slot, with a Rubio slot going to local party convention chairman BJ Van Gundy. But Cruz supporters voted down that slate.

How you get from THIS >-—>>>Donald Trump said and I quote:If I dont win a lot of people are not gonna vote. unquote.<<<
To THIS >-—>>>This proves the rumored DEAL between BFFs Hillary and Donald is true<<<
Requires a Galaxy Class Starship that can exceed Warp Ten.
I’m sick of it and sick of the corruption put out by both parties.
Trump will win on the first ballot.
I didn’t vote for Trump. Host, this is really making me mad. Why even have elections, just save money and announce the results
you are aware that these delegates can be bought off right and it is not even illegal.
Hey want a vacation with your family, no problem.
No, you just posted it in the Ga. thread....
Wrong. Look up fascism sometime.
Borderline Godwin’s law allert.
If they pulled that stunt, things will happen out of anyone's control that the FBI would accuse me of inciting if I dared mention it. But it would happen, guaranteed, just as an objective fact.
>> I want to throw up.
I say, go for it!
Then I should be more clear and concise for you.
What is your price to turn coat on trump?
I put NOTHING past them....NOTHING.
>> This whole idea that the GOP-E secretly controls all those delegates is simply false.
Yeah, but reading Trump threads is a fascinating view of what it’s like to be inside a cult. It’s like they’re live blogging from Jonestown! I can almost hear them stirring the Kool-Aid.
OK nice sarc, now tell me then how can one support a guy knowing this guy has only won 4 states where people vote and then think he would beat Clinton in a general and win those swing states like here in FL.
You say people who support Trump are a cult so tell me how you can support a guy where people don’t vote for him?
Do you support him just based on you are from TX or live in TX?
If he was from MA would you still vote for this guy>?
>> It can’t equal forever round votes or you could never resolve no one having a majority.
Trump don’t need no stinking majority! A plurality will do. Any plurality however tiny. Because winning!
If there's no reason for voters to vote, there's no reason for delegates to vote either, it's really that simple and what's the problem with that ?
The rules are the rules, rules change, the delegates were selected according to the rules, then the delegates are declared illegitimate according to the rules, all tidy and done by the rules.
What you post is: Because my team is ignorant we should win.
“Ignorant” is a generous assessment.
If you play baseball and think a person running after three strikes is against the rules -you probably don’t care if the catcher drops the ball.
Cruz is filthy.
I think that is a sentiment shared by many.
