EXCLUSIVE: 'Dump Trump' RNC Delegate Leader: We 'Have The 28 Votes' To Unbind Delegates
The Daily Wire ^ | July 10 2016 | Daily Wire

Posted on 07/10/2016 2:32:42 PM PDT by Mechanicos

Over the weekend, The Daily Wire had the opportunity to speak with Kendal Unruh, a member of the Colorado Republican delegation to the Republican National Convention. Unruh is also a member of the Rules Committee at the RNC, and a leading advocate for a vote that would unbind the delegates from the candidates to which their state primaries are pledged.

Unruh explained that "28 committee members are required to pass a minority report, which then goes to the convention floor for all delegates to vote on. It then requires a simple majority to pass." She added that she does "have the 28 votes required for the minority report," continuing, "Not everyone who is with us is willing to be public yet, due in part to the threats being made by Trump's campaign and the RNC itself."

“We don’t live in a straight democracy, where majority rule has the absolute say.”

So this fool believes that a party hack has the last word.

She is obviously a demented, bitter Cruz-bot.

The rules comm, hasn’t even been selected yet as far as I know. The old delegates are still in office until the new rules comm. sits to write the rules for this convention then the whole convention needs to vote of the rules.

If she’s from CO she is bound to Cruz. So she wants to change the rules for other delegates I gather.

The polls in 1980 all favored Carter against Reagan at this point in the race.

Clearly, Reagan was doomed to fail against Carter. /s

This HAS to be against several state election laws if they are talking about negating bound delegates on the first ballot. If a simple RNC rule change can nullify 14 million + votes, then we the people are out of options short of . . .

Yep.

The soap box has failed. An overwhelming majority of Americans protested Obamacare vigorously at town halls, the liberal thugs waited until after the 2010 election and pushed it through anyways.

The jury box has failed. The director of the FBI just stated in detail that Hillary committed multiple felonies that would put any non-elite American behind bars for many years. The director then said he recommended against filing charges in Hillary's case.

The ballot box is on its last legs, and the GOP establishment is suggesting that party leaders ignore the voters?

That's three failed boxes. Do they really want to find out whether there is another option?

I think the coup could happen at the convention. I have no idea who the replacement would be. It would have to be somebody that the establishment and conservatives could coalesce behind. My guess is Rubio.

Stupidest thing I have heard in a long time! We don't need your nattering naysaying!

Trump 1542

Rubio 165

Coalesce behind that pitiful fool!

Leave FreeRepublic and go vote for Gary Johnson.

This, if true, STINKS!
DT was not my candidate but he won the primaries....
if the R party bosses steal the nomination away from him now it will ELECT HILLIARTY
(which is apparently what some GOP=E want, they love sucking hind teat off the corrupt Democrap-IslamoNazi-Commie ruling clique)

we gotta prevent any dishonest krap like this !

Conservative will NOT vote for Amnesty Boy, even for Florida Senate, nevermind President. They may as well nominate Richard Nixon.

>>EXCLUSIVE: ‘Dump Trump’ RNC Delegate Leader: We ‘Have The 28 Votes’ To Unbind Delegates

So they can continue the Great Deception Game...having the Great Unwashed BELIEVE their votes count, when in reality, they don’t. It’s like a Big Joke they play on us. With this election cycle, so many eyes continue to be opened.
