“The Convention Rules Might Decide” - POLITICO

“…the pledged delegates [have] become free agents. They are under no obligation to follow whatever preferences Biden may express — whether endorsing his vice president or calling for an open convention with a “mini-primary” to decide his replacement on the ticket.

What happens at this point is up to the convention itself, which always has the power to adopt, amend or discard existing rules.”
