Cruz sweeps Wyoming Republican Convention
Fox news 61 ^ | april 15, 2016

Posted on 04/16/2016 5:00:37 PM PDT by Beautiful_Gracious_Skies

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – It’s a Ted Cruz sweep in Wyoming.

Cruz won 14 of 14 Republican National Convention delegates up for grabs at the Wyoming state convention here Saturday.

The crowd here was clearly in Cruz’s corner, as the Texas senator was the only candidate to make the trip to Casper — ahead of a major snowstorm — and Sarah Palin, scheduled to speak for Trump, previously canceled.

If that’s true how did Cruz manage to shut it down in 2013.

So this is not a "Stop Trump" issue per se. It's more a "Hey Guys we are all losing our cushy vote buying jobs and we can't let the voters do that" issue.

Bingo!

You are spot on.

It’s about the party protecting it’s turf.

And I would not be surprised if Rick Santorum actually won Wyoming along with Colorado. It is so simple and easy to cheat in a caucus situation. A clever 6 year old could figure it out.

Did you see my post on Colorado yesterday?

Santorum had won by over 6% but they gave most the delegates to Romney.
They are dishonest unethical party scum and need to be revealed.
And we have the list of 2012 & 2016 Delegates. Looking for names.

A whole lot of lifelong republicans quit and went Independent.

What blows me away is all the leftard-mind-warped hate for ruz. Simply because he ran from President.
I am amazed at the depths of retardation some people have.

Republican party as we knew it is dead. (And that includes all the political pundits). If they successfully steal it from Trump they lose if they allow the people to choose Trump they lose. Either way the Party loses no way for them to win. What I am waiting to see is if the American people will win or not.

So, how about using your Google skills to find out the voter participation counts AT THE PRECINCT LEVEL. You know, all those local low-level meetings of Republicans (from February 16 - March 1, 2016) that selected their representatives to attend the county conventions (on March 12, 2016). All Registered Republicans resident in each precinct could attend, participate AND VOTE. If you actually research these MANY precinct VOTING meetings you’ll find that there was record interest and attendance.

Of course, THESE INCONVENIENT FACTS will run counter to cry-baby Trump’s preferred narrative that Cruz is cheating him.

Also, I’m glad your Mommie let you out of the basement for awhile.

Cruz wins Cheney country. Yawn. At least it’s closer to his home country of Canada. Hey, can Tedthro explain quantum computing?

The Cruzlims seem to take pleasure in their Messiah being a slimy thief


Yes just like Obama supporters did in 2008 and 2012.
The cruzlims are blindly supporting their messiah.
Funny thing there is actually more legitimate questions about all
The holes in cruz’s past, citizenship, than obamas and the Cruzbots don’t care — “to he77 with qualification rules” all they care about is their phony rules that allow them to rig the delegate process. America can’t withstand much more of this. One good outcome to all of this is that Trump is pulling off the blinders and revealing for all the world to see that our votes don’t count.

that;s really depressing when you consider how most Wyomians value their rights / liberties

indeed, that attitude is perhaps the key attraction for WY

if they are just rolling over like dead and letting some national party machine bosses take their votes away from them.... or some such? is depressing

i would have thought Wyomians would care what happens to them (and the rest of us)

OK (but if I had been Trump, I would have made a visit to WY anyway, just to make sure the WY voters knew I cared about them.... despite or regardless of the party machine that may be stealing their votes)

Republican party as we knew it is dead.

Same thing New York Senator William H. Seward said when he was facing (no chance/talent) Abraham Lincoln in the GOP Nomination process in Chicago in 1859.

It's kinda amazing the Republican party has been around that long and Trump ain't figured it out YET....

It was a rigged outcome.

The real voting starts Tuesday in New York.

No.

1) They reduced the number by 55% by changing the rules.

2) It’s a Fricking BLIND vote! The ‘namebot’ you select may be the guy that winks at ya at the grocery store and says he’s Joe Conservative. Actually Joe, was going to vote for Jeb or Carly or Marco or........no one that I like!

So, I attend a precinct meeting and I vote for Mr. Goodman who votes for Mrs. Dumbnut who votes for Sen Jackazz.

3) And then the namebot-Joe has to attend meetings and travel about and schedule time for a conventions to vote for Ms. Dumbnut.

4) This process is so disenfranchising it’s not even funny. People live remotely in Wyoming. It’s excludes a very long list of people would love to just take 30 minutes and vote.

5) Wyoming is a great state with some wonderful people. How can you say that 99.87% of them have no interest in voting for a president. That’s around 269,000 registered republicans. They all just don’t care?

Your system of back-washing crony corrupted politcs makes a mockery of this Republic.

Laugh now Elk, Cry later.

No way he is Nominated.

Unless they want to watch him DQ by the DNC.

Because the plan was to lose to the HillBillies.

Great idea, you do it genius. Do you honestly think hundreds or thousands showed? I bet most of them are retreads X 4.

The CNN & NYT articles don’t even include the vote totals in the write-ups. It’s too embarrassing to print. The state has over 1/2 million people. Shameful!
