From the article:

"Party rules didn't allow anyone living outside District 45 to be there."

Two Important Snippets from the article:

"Party rules didn't allow anyone living outside District 45 to be there."

"Chair John Trandem says the students had two hours to get proper proof of residency, but didn't."


Why should students who can't prove they live in the district be allowed in to be loud for Ron Paul and once in not be able to separate them from the voters?

Legally speaking, a Student ID is NOT proof of "residence" and the right to vote. I went to the University of Michigan, but was never registered to vote in Ann Arbor or Washtenaw County. I kept my residence and voting registration in my hometown.

Student ID does not prove your legal residence.

No, the fact remains that Paul supporters don't understand rules, refuse to play by rules and cry foul like whiny little babies every time somebody else decides to play by the rules.
