Winning Massachusetts (Rmoneys home turf):


41 total delegates
27 delegates decided at 9 district caucuses


Rmoney has the 14 delegates binding to the popular vote.


Ron Paul is winning the majority of the caucus delegates which will be finalized in June.


"Less than half of Romney’s 27 chosen delegates won, and the losers included some notable Massachusetts Republicans - including Kerry Healey, the former lieutenant governor, and the House minority leader, Bradley H. Jones Jr., according to two Republican State Committee members who did not want to be named." (Boston Globe)


"It’s also the latest instance of Ron Paul supporters’ aggressive delegate strategy at work, which throws an element of unpredictability into the convention process." (Washington Post)

"The growing Paul faction in leadership positions at the Republican Party of Iowa – including the new chairman, A.J. Spiker, who was the Paul campaign’s Iowa vice chairman and can break ties in central committee votes – has created tension with Iowa Republicans who don’t share their affection for the Texas congressman or share some of his views." (Des Moines Register)


"I think Ron Paul just won Iowa" (Rachel Maddow)

You missed a bunch of states...Alaska, Washington, and Colorado to name a few, here is my list and tally from the other thread. Its a shame we have to do our own research as a lot of mainstream just not covering this...


Colorado - http://www.denverpost.com/breakingne...#ixzz1tRFaNWTr
Wasington - http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/3339...convention.htm
Iowa and Minnesota - http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/3326...-minnesota.htm
Massachusetts - http://www.policymic.com/articles/76...atest_comments
Alaska - http://www.alaskadispatch.com/articl...publican-party
Louisiana - http://www.nola.com/politics/index.s...ominate_l.html

In coloroado he only took half actually, so heres my tally:

-Minesota - Ron Paul declared winner
-Iowa - Ron Paul declared winner
-Alaska - Ron paul Declared winner
-Louisiana - Ron Paul Declared winner

-Mas - Ron Paul Declared winner (Primarily a Primary State so these delegates only get to vote for Dr Paul in second round, there is Rumor that this rule could be contested)
-Maine - Ron Paul likely declared winner.
-Nevada - Ron Paul likely to be declared winner
-Colorado - Ron Paul and Mitt Romney split 50/50
-Missouri - Ron Paul likely to be declared winne
-Washington - Ron Paul very likely to be declared winner

I haven't substantied these rumors but:
-Mississippi - Ron Paul supposably doing well
-Virginia - Ron Paul supposably doing well
-Alabama - Ron Paul supposably doing well

Yup, I keep seeing this everywhere. I made a thread about it a while ago, but Paul haters dismissed it. Making things interesting.

Another point bound Delegates are able to abstain from 1st round voting and force it into a second round allowing them to vote for Ron Paul.

Rule 34 protects them, explained:

No matter what happens Ron Paul wins...so not really...I guess you don't get the point either..We have already won
The Libertarians and Centrists won, not Ron Paul. Ron Paul has the right general idea but his policies are mostly a joke. Gold standard? Cutting back the cheese-machine?

"If you keep robbing Peter to pay Paul, Paul will always side with you".

Theres too many cheese receipients for "small Government" to work now, so Ronald needs to come back to the real world and start making his fantasies (the non turtle related ones) into workable solutions...the Republican Fuhrers might have actually given him the nod in that scenario.

Haven't you noticed how many Ron Paul supporters are being elected to gop positions and are running for legislatures?

Yeah, you're probably right. There are too many foreign military actions going, too many anti pot laws laws, too much corruption in government, too much debt, too many oppressive law enforcement agencies, too many laws and regulations... we should just give up, shrug our shoulders and bend over and take it up the ass, like good little serfs.

The GOP continues to try to stop the Ron Paul campaign with idle threats but again fails in Washington. At least in this instance they didn't threaten violence as they have at other cauceses such as MO.
[video=youtube;347BJLhZkE4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=347BJLhZkE4&feature=youtu.be[/video]

In king county washington The GOP tries to tell the Ron Paul delegates that they have to pay the rent and inusrance for the building to support Ron Paul because the newly elected chair was alleged a "Ron Paul Operative" even though she doesn't officially work for the campaign, the caucus then moved outside and gets all 12 delegates for Ron Paul. The fight for washington continues.
