Thread: Paul gets 3 delegates from West Virginia deal with Huckabee

It is being reported that Ron Paul will get three delegates from West Virginia as a result of a deal made between Ron Paul people and Mike Huckabee people in West Virginina. In exchange for Ron Paul supporters voting for Huckabee in the second round of voting, Ron Paul will get three delegates from West Virginia.

I have included links to both a webpage that has several posting from WSAZ reporter Scott Saxton as well as a link to a webpage that includes only the posting about the Paul delegates.

I didnt think this type of thing was allowed.

This day is getting stranger and stranger.

It's amazing to watch these mice and wonderful (sick) poople at work.

A vote for Huckster is a vote for McCain.
A vote for Paul is a vote for McCain.
A vote for McCain is a vote for amnesty.

I can't wait to hear the Paul supporters defend this move. They slime Romney for weeks on end for supposedly being a CFR member and then throw their support to a CFR member. Something smells rotten in Denmark.

Yes. it is allowed. The candidates can give their delegates to whomever they choose.

My understanding is that this caucus was winner take all ?

That being the case there would be no delegates to hand out
Huck gets them all

Kind of makes you wonder

Hey you think this is strange. This is a taste of what the brokered national convention will be like..lots of trading delegates..and passing them off etc...that's just how the system works. Always has. I find it fascenating.

I'm just saying if such a thing is confirmed Paul will be dirt in
my book forever

I just hope its not true
