Romney supporters filed a complaint with the party's national committee saying proper procedure was not followed during the state convention and that's why they are asking to disqualify the Ron Paul delegates. The Ron Paul delegates say they won the delegates fair and square and they claim this dispute hurts the republican party as a whole.
This same issue is happening in other parts of the country as well. The republican national committee agreed to seat 17 Ron Paul delegates from Louisiana and Ron Paul delegates from Massachusetts will also be seated.
It appears there is some good will between the Romney and Paul camps, Romney's campaign asked Paul's son, Senator Rand Paul, to speak at the convention next week.
