Free the Delegates
2016
About
Free The Delegates 2016 is a coalition of thousands of
individuals and countless organizations from across America working to educate
delegates to the Republican National Convention that they have the right and
the responsibility to nominate the candidate who best represents the values and
principles of the Republican Party to be the nominee for President of the
United States.
Preserving Delegates’ Ability to Vote Their Individual
Conscience
The secretary of the national convention shall receive
and faithfully announce and record each delegate’s vote in accordance with
these rules. If any such delegate notifies the secretary of his or
her intent to cast a vote of conscience, whether personal or religious,
each such delegate shall be unbound and unconstrained by these rules on
any given vote, including the first ballot for the selection of the Republican
nominee for President of the United States, without the risk of challenge,
sanction, or retribution by the Republican National Committee. Allowable
personal reasons shall include the public disclosure of one or more
any grievous acts of personal conduct by a nominee candidate, including
but not limited to, criminally actionable acts, acts of moral
turpitude or extreme prejudice, and/or notorious public statements of
support for positions that clearly oppose or contradict the
policies embodied in the Republican Party’s platform as established
at the national convention.
