EXCLUSIVE: 'Dump Trump' RNC Delegate Leader: We 'Have The 28 Votes' To Unbind Delegates
The Daily Wire ^ | July 10 2016 | Daily Wire

Posted on 07/10/2016 2:32:42 PM PDT by Mechanicos

Over the weekend, The Daily Wire had the opportunity to speak with Kendal Unruh, a member of the Colorado Republican delegation to the Republican National Convention. Unruh is also a member of the Rules Committee at the RNC, and a leading advocate for a vote that would unbind the delegates from the candidates to which their state primaries are pledged.

Unruh explained that "28 committee members are required to pass a minority report, which then goes to the convention floor for all delegates to vote on. It then requires a simple majority to pass." She added that she does "have the 28 votes required for the minority report," continuing, "Not everyone who is with us is willing to be public yet, due in part to the threats being made by Trump's campaign and the RNC itself."

Do not know if this is true. If it is action is needed to stomp it out.

Why are they doing this? He won, fair and square, according to their rules.

Tired of living in a country where people who break the rules are given special treatment - and people who play by the rules get the shaft. This is just sick.

Aren’t there around 2,000 delegates?

I doubt that 28 votes will accomplish anything.

They do this, so many are going to lose spectacularly. Across the entire country.

It will be over for the republican uniparty folks.

Why doesn’t she just go work for the Hillary campaign? Since that is what these kind of weirdos want, they should just stop hiding behind imaginary conservative credentials.

Don’t know what the rules are but in normal Roberts rules of order you could place an ammendment requiring it as a matter of substance to have a 2/3 vote to pass on the floor that would stop it...if not...all these bozos have home addresses and business...so after the convention there can be consequences from the locals...change your insurance agent...find a new farm supply store or whatever ...make them pay in the wallet.
Course the way i will repay it if it happens
I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ANY REPUBLICAN AGAIN EVER!
Hope that makes mr unrully happy

This HAS to be against several state election laws if they are talking about negating bound delegates on the first ballot. If a simple RNC rule change can nullify 14 million + votes, then we the people are out of options short of CWII. I hope they fail.

I’m so glad the convention is this month, so we don’t have to deal with these giddy, nonsensical ‘Dump Trump’ articles from the media much longer.

Do they not realize that their efforts, if successful, would keep millions of people to stay home?

Interesting approach to democracy. Does this women fail to realize that if the nominate any but Trump, that candidate will fail?

FWIW, The Daily Wire is a Ben Shapiro operation.
