RNC Chair Priebus: ‘We’re Going To Be Prepared For All Scenarios’

RNCC

Monday on CNN’s “New Day,” Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus, said the RNC is “going to be prepared for all scenarios.”

Priebus said, “Well, it’s still a possibility but we still have candidates that can get to the majority number before the convention. Taking your question, we’re going to be prepared for all scenarios. I was general counsel for two years and now chairman for six. We’ll put on a great convention. If it is a multi-ballot convention or open convention or contested convention, whatever word you want to use, we’ll be prepared. What happens is that you have a vote and if no one gets a majority of the delegates on the floor, then you have another vote and another vote and another vote and another vote until someone gets the majority.”

He added, “A minority of delegates does not rule for the majority. You have to have a majority. there’s no question about that.”
