#RonPaul take over on a full moon? Yesseree, this is how we do it! #Mepolitics #megop #RonPaul2012
 
This was easily the most unorganized painful experience I have ever been through. 13+ hour day and almost accomplished nothing at all.

Simply amazing.

Knox county checking in. I have hours of 1080p video of this. Pretty amazing, yup. But I wouldn't be as "negative" yet, I still haven't gotten to the results yet.
 
I know, tell me about it! The delegates were SUPPOSED to be chosen tomorrow. Now I'm waiting to see if my trip to Augusta tomorrow will be pretty much for nothing.

930 am - CD1 voting - 3 delegates also, CD2 brunch
1030 am CD2 voting - 3 delegates. also, CD1 brunch.

Also have National committeeman and national committeewoman. Thats 2 delegates.

15 delegates were picked today. (I left before the announcement of the results)

8 delegates will be picked tomorrow.

The #MittRomney campaign really stalled the #megop convention a lot today with their constant challenges. #mepolitics

Given the fight #MittRomney put up today, I fully expect an all-out challenge if #RonPaul does indeed score the delegates #mepolitics #megop

I'm somewhat astonished our people were willing to leave the floor after delegate votes were counted but before they were announced. Isn't the EXACT scenario that would be ripe for fraud?

Did someone from our side confirm the results today at least, and they are just sitting on it?

When I was leaving, I asked one from my county, one who was just reelected state committeewoman, what next and she said she and another Ron Paul (among others) would be counting the votes. The main room they used during the day was being used for a fancy political dinner. Day 1. 15 delegates voted on. We'll hear tomorrow. Tomorrow has 8 more. There were plenty of glitches. As I said earlier "counting is hard" We had counting problems in county as well, not malfeasance, just problems getting the number of people in a room right. How many people are in this room? Impossible problem to solve. We're talking 15 minutes on that, maybe? People need to practice this, seriously. Figure out a method to get it right the first time. Not having to think about how exactly 78 people can be counted in a somewhat crowded room.

Answer 1. Get a clicker, one where it increments up by 1 every time you click. You have everyone leave the room. And then they walk in. Click click click every time a person walks back into the room. Or walks out?

We settled on "everyone stand up, and when you are pointed at, you sit down." And that was funny. And it worked. But some people didn't want to sit down. Or 2 people sat down at the same time. But it worked. Took a few minutes to figure out that system.
 
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We won Nat'l chair!!!!!!!1

OMG

are you responding to my statement. that was unclear. The vote on nat' committee is tomorrow. I didn't say that we won those, but presumably we should be able to.
