Having just completed the roll call, the 168 RNC members are about to fill out physical paper ballots which they’ll fold in half (not quarters or eigths, they were instructed), drop into a ballot box, and then we’ll wait for them to be counted. In the RNC chairman elections, they don’t remove candidates in future ballots who fail to meet a certain vote threshold, but those candidates may withdraw from the race. While you’ll hear all sorts theories on who is going to win, there’s broad consensus that this race will take many ballots to settle.
