Iowa Caucuses Return Watching - OFFICIAL THREAD!!! (1/3/12)

Ron is doing well in the big cities and it takes time to count all those votes. I think it's looking good.

Agreed. Looking at the states the Santorum leads have been counted mostly. RP leads are taking longer to tally. Especially Polk which is huge. Looks good!!

nothign has updated recently?? what gives

 

[PastaRocket848]

Damn. Going south a bit. We still have the big cities and college towns to come though.

Yep and Mitt and Santorum got boosts from small counties where they are doing well being counted/reported faster. Paul had almost a 200 vote lead in Polk with only 27% counted, as one example.

plus Mitt's best/Paul's worst larger county has majority reported. I don't know overall, though- could still be very close.

Wait for the MSM to start "caling" the race for someone.... Once that happens, we know to put on our tin foil hats and start preparing for a re-count.... lol.

 

[mport1]

If the MSM hadn't manufactured the surge, Ron Paul wins by a landslide.

 

[gjdavis60]

If the spreads hold in the large counties where we are leading, we will do fine at the end.

she also said that she doesn't agree with his foreign policy and calls it isolationist.

edit to add: third party talk. that Ron going 3rd party would mean incumbent wins.


well, guess what, Palin. Ron doesn't need to run 3rd party. no matter what, NO ONE BUT PAUL!!

Damage already done... I am done with the R's... I have been insulted along with the candidate I support... they can bomb them selves in a santorum...

NO ONE BUT PAUL...

IF Paul loses and decides not to go 3rd party for his sons possible future, I vote third party...

What channel? Msnbc still has the top three all at 23%

This is what worries me most....

Turnout:

17-29 - 15%
30-44 - 16%
45-64 - 42%
65+ - 26%

Darn young people. Is it that hard to show up?

 

[ctiger2]

Third Party, Romney, Santorum = four more years of Obama.

FIXED

NO ONE BUT RON PAUL CAN BEAT BARACK OBAMA

30-44 - 16%
45-64 - 42%
65+ - 26%

That is bad. 17-29 turned out great

30-44 let us down

Yeah. This.

 

[yeshuaisiam]

The ratio of Dallas county votes for Romney does not look right compared to all the other counties.

 

[pacu44]

why is the FOX feed coming from the Romney stage?

Jeez... America died in 1913, that much is obvious to me...

 

[Kevin Smyth]

Let's not go there. The 18-29 group is only like 15% of Iowa's population.

This just means that we need to focus harder on reaching out to seniors.

Seniors= Fox News zombies and Limbaugh dittoheads. If the under 45 group won't get up off of their asses and vote for Ron Paul then we've lost this country.

 

[Brian Coulter]

That's Palin's quote, not mine. Alas, my husband agrees with her.

[nyrgoal99]

Santorum should slip as most of the small counties have already voted.

 

[terp]

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop taking amphetamines.

 

[Joey Wahoo]

If our support holds in the larger precints (which will be the last to report) then we'll win this. We've stayed very close even as the Santorum strongholds came in. Looking good.
