*** NEVADA STATE CONVENTION CONTINUES SUNDAY ****

per person filming live stream: "Ron Paul took 22/25 delegates. Delegates remain BOUND."
 
At least put it to a vote. Lose the vote? so what.

I don't see why they don't attempt it though.
 
Platform is pure fluff. If you don't have polititians with integrity. I think some people believe they are writing law......
 
I really don't see how they were able to give Romney anymore bound delegates than the election results . How do they know that the people would not have all chosen Paul if Romney was the only other choice? Santorum and Newt delegates should have been left open to fight for. In that case we would have had 14 bound for Paul. Now I think we only have 8... right? Is there a rule that allowed the delegates to be reallocated?

Not sure if I understand your question too well but since Santorum and Gingrich only suspended their campaigns they still have their bound delegates in states that have already voted causing the proportionality of delegates to remain the same. Is this correct?
 
Or the Ron Paul campaign realized we didn't have two-thirds of the floor so 'acquiesced' to the RNC official's request. Now the RNC should owe us a favor. ;)
 
We can't afford to give Romney MORE delegates after North Dakota, Colorado, and Wyoming.

I don't see why we didn't vote on unbinding them even if we may have lost. Seems like whoever agreed to this lacks any common sense.

Not voting on it also seems like a plan to give Romney the nomination.

edit: also this puts the delegates in the position of not knowing for sure whether they will get replaced by alternates at the convention if they abstain. So basically if they think it's borderline as to Romney not having the the 1166 or whatever number it is, then they might try to abstain otherwise if he has sealed the deal, they probably vote Romney since they don't want to be removed.

There is a woman attempting to make "courting spanish speaking people" a part of the platform...

She's sinking like a rock, mostly due to inability to form a cohesive english motion.

People are walking out.
