They recently tried to raise the 5 state plurality to 10, however, it failed! :headbang:

Although they did recently change the rule to now having the delegates write down who they intend to nominate before the vote.

The Ron Paul rally, which precedes the RNC, has sold out! The rally will be in the Sun Dome located on the University of South Florida campus. The maximum capacity of the dome is 10,411. That's right, it is sold out!

The GOP knows what is coming...

Paul supporters, lead by Nevada delegate Wayne Terhune, succeeded in putting together petitions from six states to put Paul’s name up for nomination. But earlier this week, the Romney campaign won a critical rules change requiring eight states to put a candidate up for nomination.

At the last moment, Paul supporters handed the petitions to the convention secretary. Then, the convention voted to adopt the eight-state rule, crushing the Paul effort.

Delegates from Nevada tried to nominate Mr. Paul from the floor, submitting petitions from their own state as well as Minnesota, Maine, Iowa, Oregon, Alaska and the Virgin Islands. That should have done the trick: Rules require signatures from just five states. But the party changed the rules on the spot. Henceforth, delegates must gather petitions from eight states.
