Of course they did. Sounds like there were some late rules adjustments in Florida as well.

Yes. Since the FL GOP moved their primary up (Jan 31?) before March 1 they should have apportioned the delegates and not given the 50 (was 99 but docket to 50 as "punishment") but they could give them all back at the Tampa convention if it suits them).

So why bother with primary voting if come hell or high water the numbers WILL be what the party elites want anyway?

They may just as well pick their person and alienate party members and "dictate" who will be "our" choice.

FL is my state and trust me half of those delegates should have gone to Newt but Romney is stealing all of them and the establishment is breaking their own rules.
