Judge Robert Payne, a Virginia federal judge, upheld a complaint by a ‘Never Trump’ Republican delegate stating that Virginia delegates are not bound to vote for Trump, and that binding them to Trump is a violation of their freedom of speech. This is a potential victory for Republicans who want to replace Trump with a different candidate at the convention — but will it actually happen, and will a replacement candidate present a benefit or a threat to the Clinton campaign?
(Hilariously enough, Trump’s campaign issued a press release claiming the exact opposite of what reputable news outlets are reporting! In Trump World, the ruling means that delegates are bound to Trump...)
