“The Secret Service today released a plan restricting where residents and visitors can drive, park, walk or take a bus during the 2012 Republican National Convention. While most of downtown will be open to pedestrians, much of the area south of Brorein Street to the waterfront will be closed to all but those with convention-issued credentials.” [Political party rules violations to disenfranchise delegates are a private matter, you see. That’s why massive conventions are funded by income-tax checkoffs and the permissible outcomes protected by the Secret Service.]
