Trump’s camp says they and the state GOP had agreed to a list of seven at-large delegates earlier this week, but the state party is changing the list in an effort to keep Trump from the nomination.

"They're picking anti-Trump people," Darren Morris, the campaign’s Tennessee state director, told The Tennessean

"They're picking establishment picks who don't support Donald Trump, and it's just the same effort that they're conducting all over the country to steal a vote here, steal a delegate there, to affect the outcome of the convention in July and take the nomination away from Donald Trump.”

Tennessee also has 14 at-large delegates, to be appointed by the state GOP. Party leaders agreed to let Trump’s team have a say in seven of the at-large spots, but are on the verge of backing out, Morris said.

The campaign emailed supporters in the state, urging them to go to a Tennessee Republican Executive Committee meeting Saturday to try to push party leaders to go with Trump’s picks.

The email points to “a small group of Tennessee establishment insiders pulling a fast one,” the Tennessean reported.

Brent Leatherwood, executive director of the Tennessee Republican Party, denied ever reaching an agreement with Trump’s campaign.

“There was never an agreement, especially after the Trump campaign spoke dismissively about the Party process and one of our female members,” Leatherwood reportedly said.
