There are state laws in play binding the delegates for the first vote.
It’s crazy isn’t it? And, we all know it, now.
Either, there is no excuse for even having delegates or a delegate system, or else there is no reason to have a primary election.
State elections adhere to the national party rules. The state secretary receives the votes, the state party proportions the delegates based on the popular vote.
The National Rep. Party is, however, a private party. It is something that one *joins*, by virtue of his/her ballot choice, on primary day. After the primary, the Party Rules apply, nationally.
The Rules Committee are elected by its *members*, just like at the Country Club. They do not appear at this point to be subjected to the state rules, because they are a private national organization.
After all, even the Founders produced this safe guard of delegates, because they had no desire for the pitchfork crowd to overtake the ideals they had set forth at the expense of their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.
However, the safe guard of delegates is upside down. Now, the Globalist Congress is the pitchfork crowd and we the people are the patriots.
We do have a dilemma on our hands.
