NV CAUCUS-GOERS: Please post your observations / live results in this thread!

Doesn't matter. They need to get over it. No one cares if they are lifelong Republicans or Democrats--associating your life with partisan politics is just sad anyway. Every vote they don't cast for Ron Paul is a vote they're casting for Obama or Obama 2.0. Period. I personally don't give a damn about irrational egos or pride; I give a damn about not seeing the country I live in implode upon itself.

No shit. But we're talking about other people, not us. And understanding WHY some don't make the crossover DOES matter, because we need to make sure they do. Getting mad at them after the fact changes nothing. Convincing them before the deadline to register does.

I think we'll get second, have to see how the rurals seem to be voting.

when will we see the rural areas start coming in?

#NVCaucus numbers I'm getting from other locations show #Paul closing gap with Newt. It'll be close for 2nd..but about 40 pts behind #Romney

They're not "my studies". lol. If you are going to argue that young people show up to vote in the same percentages as older Americans, that is just not the truth.

The difference by age in Iowa and, I think, New Hampshire was trivial.

You're ignoring reality if you question that.

Young people showed up in numbers that were basically reflective of their percentage of the total population. I'm not sure why you're even arguing the point. Facts are facts.

lmyerslvrj: Source: 9,000+ votes counted in Clark: Romney 60%, Gingrich 16%, Paul 16%, Santorum 7%. *About 70 votes separate Paul, Gingrich. #nvcaucus



Everyone in Nevada for Paul PLEASE come out and vote. This is very, very close!!!

Clark County is the only place Gingrich will do well!

I would have just told them that Paul polls almost as well as Romney against Obama, and Paul does even better with independents so it's reasonable to expect that if Republicans fell in line and supported Paul he'd beat Obama handily.

I did mention that in part of my speech. Paul polls best among Independents (beating Romney and Obama) and Independents are needed to win the general election. Ours was a small group, more like a debate & discussion, back and forth. When I mentioned that Gingrich and Santorum aren't on all of the ballots and that will dramatically hinder their ability to pick up delegates, several people were like "Wow, really? I didn't know that"

My totals from all posts so far : ( been keeping count of precinct #'s )

Mitt

Tally from my site. (30 precincts) Romney 33% Paul 22% Gingrich 14% Santorum 13% #NVcaucus

You all are very funny. Newt is calling a conference for two reasons.

1. Huge coverage - free media
2. Downplay 3rd place finish. Minimize rons 2nd place
3. Rally the troops speech.

and 4. announce counter lawsuit to the hippie Paulbot who attacked his security

Also add to the pot that demographically, the US is an aging nation. In most places the youth vote can't win an election without at least a decent showing in the older brackets.

Western High School, Las Vegas: 342 voters. 142 for Romney (42%), 88 Paul (26%), 82 Gingrich (24%), 30 Santorum (9%). #nvcaucus

My greater point is this: anything that might reach out to the Left (be it an endorsement by Oliver Stone, or whatever) gets shouted down that it will hurt us because 'this is a Republican primary!'. Fair enough. I understand that logic. But you can't do that, and then also get mad when not enough from the Left register Republican. If we're going to focus on converting Republicans to Ron Paul and ignoring converting the left, then we are just as guilty of 'partisan politics' as the people that aren't invested enough to change parties.

I'm of the opinion that we need the disenfranchised 'left'. But that sickens many people here, who refuse to reach out to them. Not everyone, obviously... but a very vocal contingent.

I've got a friend in Vegas who missed the caucuses this morning. What's the skinny on the sundown caucus?

It is you who is arguing with the facts.
