They say it’s to keep Romney out, but it will actually hurt Paul more. The Daily Caller reports,

An effort to shake up the GOP primary race is underway in the Lone Star State. The outcome could set the course for a brokered convention by keeping front-runner Mitt Romney from securing enough delegates to win the presidential nomination outright.

David Bellow, a member of the State Republican Executive Committee, told The Daily Caller that he believes there is enough support among committee members to call an emergency SREC meeting to vote on changing the state’s delegate allocation from a proportional to winner-take-all system.

According to Bellow, the effort has support from the necessary 15 SREC members to petition and call for an emergency meeting to make the decision.
