I wanted to go to Austin but will have to go to a substitute in Killeen at 5 instead because of the time constraint. BUMMER!

I was on two committees and so could not attend the March events. We had a couple of candidates attend and come to the event. Sri attend the local march and then came to our convention

It was good event with similar turnout as the 2015 convention even though there was conflict.

If someone signed up online, we accepted them as a delegate to the state convention and can take additional delegates if we need to over the next 30 days.
