So far in nearly every single state we have gotten hammered by unexpectedly
high voter turnouts. The problem is that we never knew why the voters were
turning out, and we only had the course of one day to react. It wasn't
enough.
Texas is similar in that we are seeing record turnout already.
Texas is different in that we vote over multiple days, so we have a chance
to FIGURE OUT what is going on and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
Today I have reports from people who have been working outside polling
places in Tarrant County, and they are AWESOME. We are hearing why people
are voting so much -- they are MAD AS HELL about what is going on! Simple
as that! They don't know who they're going to vote when they get there.
They just want something to change.
So of course our people are talking to them about our candidate and what he
stands for. And those people go inside and vote, and then come out and
tell them that BECAUSE THEY WERE THERE, they voted for Ron Paul. I'm
hearing that as many as 90% of the people they talk to are responding this
way.
So here is the formula:
Record numbers + Angry voters + Willing to vote for the people that show up
That's like, free votes for Ron Paul. If the Ron Paul people can't put
more boots on the ground at these places than anyone else, do we deserve to
win???
This is sign waving and lit handouts. It's as easy as sleeping!
And after you talk to them on the way in, talk to them on the way out. If
they voted for Ron Paul, ask if they're willing to do just a little more,
then hand them a flyer about being a delegate and coming to training. With
this level of turnout we already won, we just have to show up and pick up
the prize.
