Ron Paul delegates furious over RNC shut-out
Published: 30 August, 2012, 19:23
Supporters of Rep. Paul say that private security hired by the RNC roamed the convention floor on Wednesday and removed any outside signage that endorsed the congressman.
"All outside signs" were prohibited, Mike Zentz, an alternate delegate for Rep. Paul from Hawaii, tells the Huffington Post. On the contrary, though, Zentz tells HuffPo that RNC volunteers were on the floor of the convention at Tampa Bay Times Forum, on the ready to hand out signs showing support for the Romney/Paul Ryan ticket.
When a pro-Paul delegate from Nevada made it past security with his sign, Zentz says, guards quickly swarmed and ensured that the endorsement wasn’t spotted by any television crews.
"As soon as the camera moved on, security came and confiscated the sign aggressively," says Zentz. "But that was a state that was won by Ron Paul, and they were simply showing their support for their state's nominee."
