CNN needs to switch to the Andro caucus with Ron Paul speaking.

 

[ItsTime]

Just got word from Lewiston caucus "looks like only 40 Romney people here." Waiting to hear about Santorum's rough count.

Any chance Santorum overperforms at he Maine caucus? He seems to have the pro-war evangelical vote locked up in the midwest.

Ok update #2 from Lewistion.

"Looks like 2 Ron supporters for every 1 Romney" they can tell who is who because everyone is wearing stickers for the people they are voting for.

"I havent found a Santorum person yet"

Lewiston GOP insiders are trying to NOT release the numbers until they get to Augusta. However the Ron Paul people are forcing a vote to release the numbers at the caucus. We should win that vote.

What's with the GOP insider secrecy?

Mainers/New Englanders = for the most part, not interested in his kind of message.

Romney dominated that caucus in 08, this is very good news

What do you think? It only matters who counts the votes...

 

[harikaried]

Romney dominated that caucus in 08, this is very good news

Just to put some context, by dominated you mean got 12 more votes than Ron Paul.

4 years ago in Lewiston:
Romney: 30 (44%)
Paul: 18 (26%)
McCain: 16
Huckabee: 4

Any estimate on the number of people in Lewiston, ItsTime?

 

[denny]

is that a Ron Paul Rally on cnn live? Is he going to talk?

Mostly yeah. He might do well in some of the areas that have large Irish catholic populations that are pissed about Obama's birth conrol mandate. I heard he won waldo county.

The county caucus...

Lewiston is holding a caucus for the entire county of androscoggin, which Romney won easily

Unfortunately, the midwest is.

The NE and west are going to be the real battlegrounds of this nomination fight. It's Romney vs Paul.
