As the New York Times wrote yesterday,

Delegates from Nevada tried to nominate Mr. Paul from the floor, submitting petitions from their own state as well as Minnesota, Maine, Iowa, Oregon, Alaska and the Virgin Islands. That should have done the trick: Rules require signatures from just five states. But the party changed the rules on the spot. Henceforth, delegates must gather petitions from eight states.


"Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil" -Ephesians (Paul)

Iowa was 22 Paul/6 Romney, but the woman at the podium only counted Romney

Iowa cast for Paul! And they didn’t even acknowledge it

Maine, 14 Romney, 10 Paul. Again, Paul not recorded by the podium

They just did that to Minnesota, where Paul won like 40 votes to Romney’s 6

I’ve never seen a convention roll call take place during rush hour

GOOD point! I haven’t either in 64 years! They don’t want the country to see how they’re handling the count…I guess
