The Virginia GOP’s Unconventional Convention

First Read: “In addition to 37 satellite locations, Virginia Republicans are using ranked-choice voting to select their nominee.”

“On top of that, Virginia Republicans become delegates — and thus voters at the convention — by applying with the local party. And while the number of potential delegates isn’t capped (like you’d see at an ordinary nominating convention), their voting power is weighted by county/locality population and past GOP performance.”

“Multiple voting sites. Ranked-choice voting. An unlimited number of delegates. Weighting by locality.”

“It’s unlike any convention we’ve ever covered.”
