I'd have to find a copy of the Call to Convention, but if it's like that of a previous state convention I attended, the call specifies an address. This convention is still at that address, so no, they can't claim it is at an alternate location.

So are people fully of the belief that we are going to get these delegates.

If so, the people of OK are my heroes.

No chocolate chip cookies for you!

Also, there are reports on Twitter that someone from the Netherlands bought pizza for the convention. The person from the Netherlands clarified and said they did not chip in. (Putting this on here in case it becomes an 'issue'.)

Everyone leave, this meeting is adjourned. No pizza for anyone!

all those in favor say aye: "silence"
all those opposed say nay: "NAYYYYY!!!"

The ayes have it. Meeting adjourned.

Holy mackerel - there's a rumor that the guy who punched the RP supporter was Romney's son.

Here's an excellent recap from upthread (with some small edits):

[EDIT: The convention started in the hotel itself]

*credintial report not acccepted

*motion to adopt rules made invalid by t his

*romney slate was only one voted

* national chariman was voted on

*paul voter punched by romney supporter riot nearly broke out

* motion to adjourn was made and not passed by [EDIT: counted majority]

*chair ignored division calls and closed convention illgally

*convention moved outside

* since credentials were never voted on rules and another business after that were invalid

*credintials certified with 400 (roughly) delegates allowing for a quorom

*paul slate added and voted on

* and here we are

Since then the Paul slate of alternate delegates was also elected.
