Yes. We had a reorg meeting on March 22 to select officers and anybody who wanted to be a delegate for their precinct. We were told that we have 14 seats for delegates for my precinct. There are 250 precincts (I think) in our county. So this was multiplied that many times. We secured 3 delegate seats on that first meeting. We were told by the director that we need to get 11 more to have all our delegates in place. They said there is a makeup day for potential delegates to come to the makeup meeting and sign up. On April 6, after myself and my executive officer went door to door to get out 11 people, we went to the meeting. Hundreds of people there to sign up. It was crazy. stood in line for an hour and a half, when they went into the room, and sat down to fill out the forms they were told that all the slots were filled but they could be alternates. They told some people who were raising hell that is they wanted to be a delegate they should have been at the 1st meeting because that's when they were filled! Thats a lie tough, I was at mine and there were only 3 of us! They packed the ballot box with their people. At the very lest according to parliamentary procedure if there were more people than seats they should have had a vote.
Officers who had already been at the original meeting WERE NOT ALLOWED IN THE ROOM! I'm an officer who had already got my delegate seat 2 weeks before at the original meeting. Look if anybody wanted their money back its on them. These GOP slime had it all planned out! They had the officers separated from them. I know i sound like a horrible person for trying by getting involved in the process but I showed up and became an officer and delegate. Tried to get more MAGA delegates in but the GOP THREW US UNDER THE BUS! And I don't know, there may have been chargebacks.
Interesting. I'm starting to see cronyism happening in my county-level GOP committee. Just standard stuff where they're just installing their own guys into positions and not letting new people make a difference.
Thanks (by the way) for filling me in. Appreciate it brotha 🙏
Can you give more background info?

And you told those hundreds how to initiate a chargeback to get their money returned right?
You didn't just disperse after nothing more than shouting did you?
If you peacefully left, you are complicit.
