The simple remedy already provided for is that the delegate resign.
There is no reason to upend state laws and primary voter results to accommodate a few snowflake delegates who refuse to do their jobs.

Could be a problem at the Convention. There’s no tellin’ what this guy might say or do. Get him out!
I also know several Rules Committee members. They intend to quash this tactic harshly, as it would set a precedent for the future that no one wants.
This is much like the Brexit vote. It was all fun and games to let those unwashed masses vote on Brexit when the elites thought things would go their way, but it didn’t and now the same elites are throwing a fit and demanding a revote. Or perhaps the Brexit vote doesn’t count. Total dismissal of the peoples’ choice.
Exactly right and I was one of them.
... of a naturalized citizen.
The scary thing is that this moron is an attorney and former prosecutor.
These sore losers should be ignored at this point!!!
Manafort must have everything secured for Trump by now!!
Personally, I learned in my teen years that bullies need to realize that their actions only serve to diminish them!!
That’s why glorifying criminals, terrorists, etc. sends precisely the wrong message.
Of course, terrorists must be killed—but no one ought to given the time of day when it comes to undermining the will of millions of voters.
Oh wait a minute: Is this like the many so-called Conservatives and TEA Partiers were elected, then went to Congress and proceeded to allow OabamCare, Obama budgets, and otherwise kiss the collective asses of Liberals? Sound like a familiar theme?
The Cruz douchebaggery lives on. Trump is the nominee. The people have spoken.....and are now being muted.
Rope. Tree. RINO.
Some assembly required.
Hildy, you're a godsend. Thank you so much for keeping us informed about what's going on inside the convention process. That is very good news.
Nim Roddo agreed to the rules when he signed up. Ambulance chasers have no business being delegates. Throw him off the delegation.
“Why doesn’t Cruz put a stop to this?
He could, if he wanted to, since it’s his supporters are the ones who are causing this turmoil within the Republican party, which will only benefit Hillary.”
Just one more of the myriad if reasons why Ted Cruz should never be allowed to hold public office again. He’s exactly like HIllary Clinton in that he has little or no regard for the rule of law!
The Founding States had not intended for either the Senate or the President to be elected by popular vote. But the anti-constitutional republic Progressive Movement spooked citizens to pressure state lawmakers to ratify the ill-conceived 17th Amendment in a push to unconstitutionally centralize government power in DC, state lawmakers foolishly giving up their voices in Congress by ratifying that amendment.
The remaining step for the Progressive Movement to centralize power in DC was to get control the Oval Office by likewise corrupting the constitutional elector process for president with mob rule by letting low-information citizens also vote for president.
But thanks to a growing number of patriots who are disgusted with incompetent Obama, a corrupt Congress and state sovereignty-ignoring Supreme Court, the mob rule approach to centralizing government power in DC is now backfiring in the faces of the traitors behind the Progressive Movement as evidenced by record-breaking support for Trump.
” Political parties can choose their candidates for office in any way they decide.”
I don’t think that they can change the rules after the game has started.
You forgot the rest of the word, “hole!”
If Mr. C was a honorable man, he would resign his position of “delegate” and allow someone to take his place, who understands that a “delegate” OF the people has a DUTY to follow “the WILL of the people”.
I can’t help but wonder how much money George Soros is paying these self-centered quislings...
If they can't do that, they should stay home and an alternate should take their place.
And about Cruz? It's become very obvious that he's part of The Grand Design, always was. His resume supports that view.
Thank you Hildy.
