Anti-Trump Forces Say They Have the 28 Votes on the Rules Committee To Force a Floor Vote on Unbinding the Delegates
Hmm.
28 votes doesn't pass the measure -- but it then gets put out for a vote by all the delegates.
Unruh explained that "28 committee members are required to pass a minority report, which then goes to the convention floor for all delegates to vote on. It then requires a simple majority to pass." She added that she does "have the 28 votes required for the minority report," continuing, "Not everyone who is with us is willing to be public yet, due in part to the threats being made by Trump's campaign and the RNC itself."
