Don't let Ron Paul fail to get on the Pennsylvania ballot

[mosquitobite]

The f*ck.

Its not as though we couldnt have gotten this done, why the last minute BS? Whos to blame? Someone's head needs to roll.

Can Matt Collins confirm? I'm gonna call the campaign right now.

Also, I think there are some rules people need to be aware of. Apparently the name on the petition has to match the name on the voter registration perfectly, correct? Middle initial etc.

Yes, and in Indiana the signatures need to match what they have on record as well. They disqualified a LOT because of that.

Don't call the campaign. Just go circulate petitions. Matt Collins has no clue what's going on in PA.

Alright. So I'll take this form: http://files.meetup.com/1822712/PA_RonPaul_Petition-1.pdf

The voters have to be registered as Republicans in PA, correct?

F*ckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can hit Temple but Im damn near sure most of the students arent registered in Philadelphia county. Theyre from all over. This is a major cluster f*ck.

UPENN will be the same way. Lemme think. Villanova maybe? Pennstate main campus would be perfect but its too goddam far.

Maybe a friend of mine can go.

There's no law that says you must collect sigs at a college campus. Try a shopping mall, or downtown!!

I live in hell. If ten people go to the post office all day I'd be surprised. I live in the most spread out district in the state.

Can someone change the title of this thread.

I tried shopping mall and public - the return on investment (of time) just isn't worth it. FAAAAR better return at a college campus. Trust me!

 

[A. Havnes]

Bump. This is important!

Ten signatures is better then none

buy voters lists from the county election boards, party affiliation is indicated; make sure voter signs exactly as registered in blue or black ink, and they date it

if they signed for another the first one counts

someone going house to house can gather 40-60 valid signatures in a day. but this is a hard time of year; weather, dark too early.

Can all this be done TODAY??? Isnt the deadline tomorrow?

F*ck man!!!

 

[brandon]

Calm down, it's been going on for 3 weeks. The campaign already has all the voter lists and have distributed them to the district coordinators weeks ago. If you're not in PA just relax and know there's a lot of people working really hard on this today, and they have been for several weeks.

 

[kathy88]

I finally figured out how to get this stupid petition printed the way it's supposed to be. Currently gathering sigs. Been at it for 2 mins, got 3 I'll gather sigs today and tonight, and if I have to drive it to Harrisburg tomorrow I will, but I'm hoping i can meet up with someone.

If we fail in our district we can thank inept local organizers who do nothing to welcome newcomers into their meetup groups. Friends and I attended several meetups at the local group and found we were ignored and treated as strangers. The same people have been running the group since the last cycle and seem to dominate the local leadership for some unknown reason. If you cant run a successful sandwich shop, why should you be one of the people in charge of a grassroots campaign? Lame.

Please calm down everyone.

In PA, the primary votes for Ron Paul won't get him any delegates. It is just a straw poll or what some called "beauty contest". The results may help him get some media attention, but no delegates. Delegates who win the vote counts for their precinct in the primary is more important. So if you are from PA, please vote for the delegate candidates who you know will represent Ron Paul at the Tampa convention. The best way to find out these candidates is join the local meetup or talk with other local Ron Paul supporters within your precinct to find out who they are and vote for them this primary.
