WASHINGTON state gop convention thread STARTING 5/30 (LIVESTREAM May31-June 2)

[[email protected]]

seems pretty even when listening to the ayes and nays. When they add the alternates which hopefully will be a lot of Paul people.

People aren't voting party lines. Lots of Romney people voted nay because they want to accept the rules and move on.

 

[JK/SEA]

Kirby Wilbur remains the permanent Chair. Un-opposed.

Convention adjourned till saturday morning.

Incorrect, they have adjourned into districts.

10 districts with 3 delegates and 3 alternates coming out of each.

 

[JK/SEA]

The main convention is adjourned. Caucus meetings, then go home. No going back to main room till saturday. At least thats what i heard from Wilbur. He didn't say 'break' he said 'adjourn'..

Why didn't we get rid of this guy?

 

[jtwing85]

Kirby Wilbur has been a very fair chair. We did not have the numbers to replace him.

We just took the 3 delegates from CD 7. We are voting on alternates now, and we will win them.

Wilbur isn't too bad. It was a decision the Ron Paul leadership decided. Let him have it without rancor. Its more of a 'i'll scratch your back if you scratch mine'. Hopefully we don't bleed too much...lets see what happens.

I used to think Kirby was a principled man, lets hope he proves my earlier impression right.

The count is in! Ron Paul unity slate sweeps delegate slots in 3rd CD. #wagop

 

[LatinsforPaul]

CD 7 just elected all 3 #RonPaul Delegates to State Convention. #WAgop

So Ron Paul has swept #wagop delegates in the 7th and 3rd CDs. Any other reports in ?

[digitaldean]

How many have pass and we didn't win? Only 2 have counted so far or more?

I sure hope they finally brought the alternates in before the vote. That should help us.

 

[Lightweis]

did we lose any yet?

 

[LatinsforPaul]

did we lose any yet?

By the tweets we lost CD4, CD6, CD8, CD9

This is consistent with the first tweet in the OP, so far:

Bruce Morton ‏@BYUfan
According to #WAGOP chair Kirby Wilbur #RonPaul is ahead in CD 3, 6, and 7 #MittRomney is ahead in CD 1, 4, 5, and 8. The others are tossups

Unfortunately with 6 and 9 it sounds like Romney got two of the toss ups.

However, seating alternates can change it.

weeping: no majority on 1st #wa02 ballot. 2nd ballot coming now for delegates. #wagop
