Does it alter the number of votes a candidate needs in order to win the Nomination? Or are 1144 votes the bare minimum, regardless of how many delegates vote?

Dr. Paul! You're here!

You've changed my life, sir. Thank you forever for your heroic statesmanship.

to your question, apologies, I'm just not sure of this kind of detail, but it generates some interesting what-if scenarios.

Anyways, great to have you on the forums! You're an inspiration for all of us.

Maybe that's why they always make a 'Where's Danke?' thread when you are missing.
