Does “lobbied in person” include Trumps favorite response of getting punched in the face? When Stone made the comment he said nothing about lobbying in person. He has a history of being a henchman, so it is not surprising people would interpret his comment as intimidation.

Maybe it would be better to read Stone’s actual remarks rather than extrapolate and guess.
The actual quote is this:
“If you’re from Pennsylvania, we’ll tell you who the culprits are. We urge you to visit their hotel and find them. You have a right to discuss this if you voted in the Pennsylvania primary, for example, and your votes are being disallowed.”
I think having a right to discuss your vote being disallowed or ignored by a delegate representing the voters interests is a far cry from “punching someone in the face”.
He is not telling people to go their home. We give out politicians office numbers and addresses all the time.
Difference here, is their hotel rooms are the only place that the public “could” have access to the delegates since the convention would not give the public entrance.
We always say, talk to your congressman. The delegates are filling an important role and should be held accountable as well.
Actually, that is only the latest quote from stone about giving out delegate hotel information. Stone has a history of being a campaign thug, and he seems to fit well with Trump and his mentality.
Maybe if he spent more time learning the rules of delegate selection and less time trying to intimidate folks he would have more success.
