**NEVADA** State Convention updates here

[Bronies-4-Paul]

I'm filled with trepidation. I can only hope our delegates have the acumen and knowledge of Robert's Rules to clear out the bused in Rmoney supporters.

 

[economics102]

To those asking about the chair: from what I understand the Romney and Paul camps pre-agreed on a chair who they both felt would be reasonably impartial. So there was no battle for the chair like we had (and won) in Maine this morning.

 

[Constitutional Paulicy]

My concern is that the 400+ late comers are Romney people who were bussed in and were then registered after 9:00. When everyone returns from lunch they will be included and since the co-chair stated that there is no time stamp on the registration forums, they can not be motioned to be excluded.

 

[kathy88]

I hope Ron's speech includes telling the delegates that whoever was handing out fake slates should be ashamed of themselves.

 

[invisible]

Why isn't there a headline yet that says "romney caught trying to stack NV state convention"? Where is the media on this one?

Anyone in NV not there that we can get there by after lunch?

 

[EvilNight]

I'm not at the convention, just watching it since the stream went live. I figured Nevada would be a circus, and so far it hasn't disappointed in that regard.

 

[economics102]

ok so with that being said, once they only allow the 1146 delegates back in, we should have the majority because we had 750 rp supporters registered.... am i correct in that?

If we can weed out the people Romney bussed in, we should have a majority. But it's not clear if we'll be able to successfully do that.

^^^ This and that seems to be the plan.

We got screwed. Who the F!#$ had the bright idea to agree on a Chair with the Romney Camp?? We are going to lose NV

 

[Scott_in_PA]

Are the credentials serialize or numbered in some way themselves ?

I would like a pic of a good credential.

Re: The Chairman....

The Chaorman was nominated and not challenged by either the Romney or Paul camp. It appeared that there must of been some kind of agreement with the reps of both sides to accept him that must of been done at some earlier point in time (prior to convention).

 

[teacherone]

don't panic yet!

The issue is it's unclear who they are since there is no time stamp on the registration forums. This was stated by the co-chair.

The Paul campaign should not have agreed to this. You cannot have an impartial chair in this scenario. If we had our guy as chair, the issue with the extra 400 people would have been sorted out fairly quickly. This is what we get for trusting the snake (Romney).

Yea, i can just imagine the scene on the bus. Probably a bunch of old farts all armed with metamucil and ensure, like its a LV tour, waddling like penguins to go vote for their savior of entitlements. So damn pathetic.

 

[Carson]

Yeah, the chair is not one of us but he hasn't been completely horrible either.

The world is watching.

Uhh...is that like the Karl Rove 'Gentleman's Agreement' they did in IA with Santorum and Romney, with the missing counties, lights going out, and missing trucks?

 

[Real_CaGeD]

The world is watching.

Yes, this is big.

 

[Occam's Banana]

So the preliminary credentials report has 1146 delegates.

The (non-preliminary) credentials report has 1627 delegates. (I don't know if this credentials report has been adopted yet.)

Someone (apparently an RP supporter ?) moved to unseat 419 "late" delegates who had been registered after 9 AM. (It is unclear where this 419 figure comes from)

And there is some unspecified number of guests who are not supposed to vote (but ...).

Oh, yeah, and there's apparently no way to identify who those "late" delegates might have been.

 

[EvilNight]

Ron Paul supporter just explaining it all.

They are indeed verifying delegates now and taking steps to guarantee that only those who are on the master list will be allowed to vote. Guests will NOT be in the room at all. Press will be in the room but separated and watched to guarantee they are not participating.

All of this is apparently due to the chairman's decisions alone, so we have him to thank for restoring fairness to the assembly.
