Called Wa Gop And Here Is Why They Aren't Finished

[icon124]

Just got off the phone with the WA GOP and I asked why they are not finished counting the numbers yet...or even why the numbers haven't moved yet...I also asked why the democrats where 97% done compared to the republicans 37%

the GOP has 5 paid staffers working right now with 2 of them doing some bullshit that has nothing to do with counting right now....according to the person I talked to the democrats had 30 people counting their votes....so yeah say what you want but I smell complete BULLSHIT

WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU ONLY HIRE 5 PEOPLE TO COUNT A WHOLE STATE

Cause its not the whole state, it's only precincts where Paul did badly

Probably what's taking so long is that people keep calling and interrupting them while they're trying to count.

if the counting was that important to them

1. They would have more than 5 people counting the ENTIRE STATE
2. If they were that short and really needed to crunch them out SOON...WHY WOULD THEY EVEN ANSWER THE PHONE RIGHT NOW

and i wonder if the 3 counting are working at a 'higher pay rate'

 

[Spirit of '76]

My point was that all of this telephone harassment probably isn't encouraging them to move any faster.

Can we start a new strategy of constantly calling every state GOP in ever primary remaining so that they never get to release results for McCain or Huckabee either?

 

[ChickenHawk]

Maybe they really don't care that you need the results right now. If it takes a week to count the votes the votes still get counted. I don't know why they would be in a hot hurry to get it done when they have plenty of time.

I can see it now..

*guy walks in with box*
"here's all the votes, guys"
"alright! about time! .. you can leave now."
*closes door behind him*
*opens lid*
*looks over vote totals with evil grin*
"mwuahahaha!"

The outcome of the Washington caucus cannot be manipulated because the delegates are the outcome. A delegate isn't going to change their preference because someone at the county GOP counted wrong.

 

[Ex Post Facto]

True, chickenhawk. Does anyone know that if winning 5 states, in caucus states, how is that broken down? Does a person win the state with delegates or by straw poll?

 

[grizzums]

I seriously believe we have won the most delegates from todays caucus. It will not be reported that way, unfortunately, but just wait until the convention. Today, Washington delivered a win for Paul, in my humble opinion. I'm proud to be a part of it. Thank you to all Ron Paul patriots today!

I believe its by delegates, if I remember Bradley correctly.

Just Got Off The Phone With WA GOP..."We Are Not Suspending The Vote Count"

That's what the lady said.

There is a news value right now - and that is what State GOP leadership is trying to take out of this...
