Libertarian National Convention is currently going absolutely nuts right now apparently, with almost every single individual delegate forwarding a motion to "suspend the rules"

As always, I would appreciate if you shout out Populism Updates in the chat
lol
Lmaaaaaao one of the delegates just asked to suspend the rules to nominate "Flaming Meteor" for president
They just used a D20 to roll for the order of nominating speeches and Vermin got a natural 20
There's a break for now, then they're gonna go into nominating speeches.

Also one of the candidates who led "polls" (for whatever those are worth in the Libertarian primary) just endorsed Vermin Supreme https://twitter.com/DanForTexas/status/1264248932735082496
The speeches are go now. I guess this is Vermin's competition for the nomination
This is hilarious, there were video issues with the people speaking for Adam Kokesh (pre-recorded) so we're left with this blurry guy talking with shoddy audio about Adam's diet of "pineapple and LaCroix sparkling water" as the candidate himself looks on in seething anger
Pretty much tells you how this is going for him
Poor guy got absolutely savaged in the chat
"I want you to give a speech nominating me for President of the United States"

"Sure, I don't have to like... put any effort at all into this though right"
To be fair this guy has better video quality than most of the speakers
Famous "toaster license guy" Darryl Perry speaking now
Imagine paying 100 dollars for this
Heeeeeeeere we go
Vermin's nomination speech is going on now.

No boot on his head. He's serious
They cut him off before he was done... The rigging has already begun bros
This woman was just screaming on a hot mic for her husband Wayne to close the door to her bird room and honestly that's pretty much how this entire thing has gone
Sorry I just really want to acknowledge the chair of the Alaskan Libertarian Party right now
A delegate named Starchild is talking right now, I really can't even keep up with this shit
Starchild feels disenfranchised by this process apparently
Wow the New York Libertarian state chair just endorsed Vermin Supreme, saying "this process has been so much of a joke already, who better than him?"
If you're wondering how the Libertarian Party chairman running all of this is doing himself, well, he seems just as exhausted as I am
Me still watching this Libertarian Convention as the delegates vote on whether to allow concession speeches
Libertarian Convention results should actually be coming in now I think, don't blame me if there are still several hours worth of delays. They *claim* they're speeding things up now
Lmao the Utah Libertarian chairman announced "3 tokes for Vermin Supreme"
Yeah the fix is definitely in for Vermin here lol
Alabama delegation coming in clutch declaring that Epstein didn't kill himself though
Based: Vermin won Arizona
Whenever delegate votes are announced for Hornberger
Colorado is officially bootsed and bootpilled
Is this really what people from Delaware are like
Vermin just narrowly won Illinois lol
Most of these he's coming up with only a few votes but remember, these delegates are completely unbound
Not really sure what's going on with the Oklahoma state chair, not that I have a problem
Rhode Island unanimously gave its votes to Jacob Hornberger.
FIRST ROUND TALLY, LIBERTARIAN CONVENTION VOTE
I... I think this means Vermin makes the second round
Delegate just moved to suspend the rules to add Joe Exotic to the second ballot
"Um I will rule that to be out of order, so that motion will not be made."

"Ok thank you"
Someone really needs to clip the delegate asking to suspend the rules for the purpose of feeding some other delegates to alligators
"You roll a critical 20. Not only are you allowed to close out nominating speeches, but the delegates begin to shift to you en masse. Move immediately to the second round" https://twitter.com/PopulismUpdates/status/1264251108551094277
Second round results. Vermin remains in third place and moves on to the next round. Subsequent balloting will likely take place tomorrow morning
Nope the third round is tonight
This is the danger zone for Vermin btw, he's close enough to Monds that a small shift could knock him out.

Fourth place candidate is on the chopping block this time
Highlights I haven't posted because I'm tired are one delegate forwarding a motion to declare that hotdogs are not sandwiches, and some guy asking Vermin Supreme how he "powers his time machine"

To which Vermin responded "it's gonna take a LOT of zombies"
Th-They're now talking about completing the presidential ballot tonight
Overwhelming vote just now to complete the presidential nomination tonight, which did steal from me a part of myself that I will never recover
They're now figuring out whether they can adopt the porcupine as the official Libertarian mascot
