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."

Will not happen and if any efforts, it will be stopped.
Unruh needs to be stomped.
Why are they doing this? He won, fair and square, according to their rules.
Tired of living in a country where people who break the rules are given special treatment - and people who play by the rules get the shaft. This is just sick.
More clickbait bullsh*t. Won’t happen.
Bill Kristol Delusional Syndrome.
Aren’t there around 2,000 delegates?
I doubt that 28 votes will accomplish anything.
They do this, so many are going to lose spectacularly. Across the entire country.
It will be over for the republican uniparty folks.
Well, if you guys want to lose the country to communism then just keep it up.
Why doesn’t she just go work for the Hillary campaign? Since that is what these kind of weirdos want, they should just stop hiding behind imaginary conservative credentials.
Don’t know what the rules are but in normal Roberts rules of order you could place an ammendment requiring it as a matter of substance to have a 2/3 vote to pass on the floor that would stop it...if not...all these bozos have home addresses and business...so after the convention there can be consequences from the locals...change your insurance agent...find a new farm supply store or whatever ...make them pay in the wallet.
Course the way i will repay it if it happens
I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ANY REPUBLICAN AGAIN EVER!
Hope that makes mr unrully happy
If there are any shenanigans we all need to post vacation time immediately pack the car and descend on them like nothing they have ever seen. Hell noooooooo
This is about the Rules Committee.....
yes, 28 votes there could be dangerous, hope they don’t really have them....
Mormon?
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 CWII. I hope they fail.
I’m so glad the convention is this month, so we don’t have to deal with these giddy, nonsensical ‘Dump Trump’ articles from the media much longer.
Working hard to get Clinton elected - it’s the RINO way.
Do they not realize that their efforts, if successful, would keep millions of people to stay home?
Interesting approach to democracy. Does this women fail to realize that if the nominate any but Trump, that candidate will fail?
FWIW, The Daily Wire is a Ben Shapiro operation.
