Title: Keyes Wins Delegates
Post by: afcassidy on May 09, 2008, 12:14:16 AM
It took him long enough, but Alan Keyes finally found a state where the bar was low enough for him to win a couple of delegates to the GOP convention...

Wonderful news. Hopefully Mr. Keyes will be allowed to speak at the convention.

Since he left the party and ran for another party's nomination, will Keyes still be given these delegates? It seems strange to me that one could gain delegates in one party while running for another’s nomination, and I don‘t think the Democrats allow it, at least. Can anyone clear this up?

George Wallace won half a vote at the 1968 Democratic convention, despite running independently at the time.

They should have given him 3/5ths of a vote for irony.

Yup. 'Twould've been hilarious. I wish they could've found somebody to donate one-tenth of his vote to Wallace. :P

Yes but most delegates abandon their respective candidate and vote for the party nominee by the time the convention rolls around.
