Rep. Landing proposes the following amendment (LC-4066.HDB0028H):
Amend the bill, as and if amended, SECTION 1, by striking Section 7-9-100(B) and inserting:
(B) The convention must be composed of no more than nine hundred and forty-three total delegates elected by the various county conventions. Each county is individually entitled to one delegate for each six thousand residents of the county, two delegates plus its pro rata share of eight hundred and fifty-one delegates, to be allocated by the state executive committee to each county by population according to the latest official United States Census, plus two additional members. If the pro-rata share for a county is less than one delegate, that number is rounded up to one delegate for a minimum total of three delegates per county. If a county has a fractional portion of population of at least three thousand residents above its last six thousand resident figure it is entitled to an additional delegate.A county convention may not elect more delegates than the number allocated pursuant to this section, and each delegate has one whole vote which may not be divided into any fraction thereof.
