From this article, they claim Sessions spoke to a crowd, “nearly half the size.”

So Texas delegates fly or drive 3-9 hours to Dallas and they can’t be bothered to listen to Senator Sessions address them. While Jeff speaks, some hold signs that say, “Thank you Ted” And the Delegates are there to represent 3 million R voters from Texas.
From the article:

“Cruz — welcomed by supporters waving “Thank you Ted” signs — didn’t even once utter the name of Donald Trump.”

“And he didn’t talk about a need to unite behind Trump to beat Democratic presumptive presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, which rankled some delegates.”

“I couldn’t believe Cruz didn’t say something about unifying behind the presumptive nominee,” said Pat Carlson, a Fort Worth delegate, Trump supporter and former chairwoman of the Tarrant County Republican Party. “He only gave his campaign speech.”

“But the need to unite behind Trump was mentioned Saturday by a campaign surrogate for the billionaire, U.S. Rep. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala.”

““LET’S PUT THIS TOUGH PRIMARY BEHIND US. ... WE CAN AND WILL UNITE.”” Sessions spoke after Cruz, to a crowd about half the size, encouraged Texans to rally behind Trump who has promised to address key issues- the economy and immigration.”

“This is a critical election,” he said, as some delegates raised signs that read “Thank you Ted” and “Go Trump.”

“Let’s put this tough primary behind us,” he said. “We can and will unite.”

Thanks for the info on the state convention.

Thanks.
