Louisiana caucus results (OFFICIAL THREAD)

[sailingaway]

10 will be bound to Rick Santorum and 5 to Romney at the National Convention as a result of the primary last month. If we are able to unbind them at state, I don't know.

But it looks like we will be getting at least a plurality from the state of Louisiana following the CD conventions and State convention. That's 3 states.

edit argh - I can't find it now, and I was looking at so many states I don't want to say it wrong.

Anyone know if it's true that Paul is speaking in Baton Rouge tonight?

 

[The Magic Hoof]

Yes!

 

[LibertyEagle]

WOOHOO!!! Way to go, Louisiana!!

 

[sailingaway]

Oh ok, thanks. Still pretty cool.

plus if they are our guys' actual bodies, that makes a huge difference, even if initially bound to someone else.

Fantastic news! Great job, LA!

Saturday 2 June 2012: The State Convention convenes at 10 am in Shreveport to elect delegates to the Republican National Convention.

18 National Convention district delegates-- 3 from each of the state's 6 Congressional Districts are elected in the Congressional District meetings. The participants at the State Convention alone determine if presidential preference is to be a factor in such choice and, if so, how it is to be applied. These delegates are official designated as uncommitted. [Rule No. 19. (c) and 20. (a)]
20 National Convention At-Large delegates are elected according to the results of the primary. [Rule No. 19. (d) and 20. (b)]
5 National Convention delegates are nominated by the Executive Committee. These delegates are official designated as uncommitted. [Rule No. 19. (e) and 20. (b)]
The 3 party leaders, the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Louisiana's Republican Party, will attend the convention as unpledged delegates by virtue of their position.

My interpretation based on looking at Green Papers and Wikipedia is that there are 25 statewide and 3 per district, plus 3 supers. Of the 25 statewide, 20 were apportioned by the primary, but may be selected at the state convention (thus con be hijacked). Those 20 were 10 Frothy, 5 Rommel Romney, 5 uncommitted (which suggests the actual delegates are chosen at state). The remaining 5 would be chosen openly at state. The districts are chosen at the district cons per usual.

So in theory we could get all 43, but 15 would be bound to someone else on the first ballot. Actually no, 4.5/6 means we will not get those 2 districts and their 6 delegates. So 37, with 15 bound to someone else. Altho what will happen in the split district? 2-1?

The MSM needs to run some kind of story on this. I figure Maddow will eventually have something to say about this, but she usually waits weeks after our victories occur to report anything. If only all of the major networks reported something now, that would give a huge injection of momentum going into the next primaries.

Do NOT posts those texts yet!

I am in contact with Pete the State Director and he just told me any announcement is "pending approval". If Pete told you something, unless he specifically told you to publish it, DON'T PUBLISH IT!!!

Can they be published yet?

She's often a day late and a dollar short.

I agree. Whomever wants to break it down can compare to the actual list of delegate slates for each district for a 100% accurate compariso count here:

It's the top 25 from each district that become state convention delegates. You have to know which people are the Paulites.

In CD1 it is obvious though, that the Paul people cleaned up. Notice the sharp demarcation between the 25th and 26th place. 800-some votes for the bottom winner to 600-some for the runner up. I suspect every single one of the top 25 there, is on a Paul slate.

all I see at those links are sample ballots. Was something removed?

Truth Warrior was Louisiana i think.
