    Nevada Mess at GOP, Keep Alert Ron Paul Delegates

    Seems like we are seeing a repeat of the Primary Vote Counting System the GOP employed during the actual Primaries. Great Job Nevada Ron Paul Republicans! We are thinking of you all and all your hard work thus far! Stay in the GAME.

    Letter to Nevada Delegates

    I would like to thank you and everyone who attended last weekend’s Republican State Convention in Reno. We had a record turnout and we are pleased that so many Nevada Republicans chose to participate.

    Unfortunately, we had to recess the convention without completing all of our work. This was done due to a rule change that took place early in the morning – which caused the convention process to take far longer than expected. Over 200 individuals’ names were submitted to the Nominations Committee for consideration to be selected as delegates to the National Convention. Once voting was opened to the floor, another 187 names were submitted. Although some names may have been duplicates, our Nevada Republican Party By-Laws allow delegates the opportunity to speak on their own behalf. Therefore, the process would have lasted well into the evening and perhaps early into Sunday morning. In addition, individual ballots for those names would have to be printed. Therefore, it was evident a recess was in the best interest of the State Convention and its attendees. This was done primarily due to time restraints and the fact that our contract with the Peppermill for the convention hall had expired.

    Aside from delegate selection, I am proud to say that we completed all other convention business. We passed rules, bylaws, credentials, and adopted a State Platform which we hope all Nevada Republicans can be proud of. However, delegates still need to be selected to the national convention and we look forward to doing so in the very near future.

    Currently the Nevada Republican Party is working hard to find the best possible way to complete our convention business with the selection of delegates to the National Convention. We will work from within our existing By-Laws, which state that the remaining business must be conducted in Washoe County. It is our sincere hope that once we determine the best way to complete our business for the 2008 State Convention, we will have maximum participation and the process will have taken its course in a fair and respectable manner.

    Rest assured that once we determine the process by which we can complete our business, all delegates will be notified directly. We would like to thank everyone for their patience during this time.

    Sincerely,

    Sue Lowden
    Chairman

    Yeah, she forgot to mention the fact that 7 of 9 congressional district delegate positions were going to Ron Paul supporters by a 3 to 1 margin. This had more to do with the reccess than going over on the time. Since when do you recess a convention in the middle of counting votes in an election? I cry foul.
    There's a new phrase for honesty, integrity, and common sense in government. It's called "Ron Paulitics"

    We are "Liberty Republicans"
