Des Moines, Iowa Straw Poll-Oct. 29th!

from djruden:

At the event there seems to be the strongest presence for Paul. Signs hung up everywhere and lots of Paul bumper stickers outside. I showed up after Paul spoke but the ladies at the registration desk made it sound like he's the candidate to beat today.

The official annoucement is suppose to be at 7PM, you think we will know earlier than that?

 

[freeforall]

7pm central? Gah, I hate anticipation!

 

[truthrewards]

I guess that is only 2 1/2 hours from now.

I wish someone would post the video of his speech today

Are you serious,what is the vote count, could you paste the results here

 

[truthrewards]

I can't believe thay Romney isn't in the results, is this real?

 

[freeforall]

No votes for Romney?

 

[TexMac]

It's a tweet, I don't think they've OFFICIALLY read out the results yet.

This will be a nice litmus test for the media in the whole Straw poll matters if someone not named Paul wins vs they don't matter if Paul wins. If/when they downplay Paul's win in Iowa but play up Cain's victory in Alabama, it'll make John Stewart's day.
