Maybe somebody should tweet her "Sane RP'er on establishment status quo of TEAM Insider: "They are about 6 miles past the where the constitution hangs".

This has been the biggest clusterfuck of an election I've ever seen. The GOP should be absolutely embarrassed.

This is how easy it can be.
The elected chairman needed to make sure people signed in before he allowed a vote. It is that simple but even my RP supporting Chairman screwed it up. He even dropped his vote in without marking a vote and had to pull it out to vote..... incompetence is rampant. We did end up with fewer votes than sign ins though. We even had some people from other precincts drop votes in our folder. Then they came back to get them out....We had know idea which vote was there's....It was really stupid of our chairman. I should have gotten there earlier and been chair I guess. Just my observation

I continue to be very confused.

Is there still hope for 2nd in NV??

 

[Maestro232]

We got f1st. Not sure we'll be able to prove it though.

I dont even know dude, it's so beyond confusing at this point. Totally inexplicable this crap can even be allowed to happen, seems surreal sometimes. Not sure what the status is though right now, but doesn't seem like he will be getting 2nd, since he was 6% behind Newt when they stopped the counting.

 

[Paulistinian]

Its sounding like Paul may have beaten ROMNEY by winning 1st in Clark County...

Thanks for the reply. They have stopped counting?

 

[Maestro232]

What are you're reasons?

Perhaps there`s still a chance for 2nd place. Polls showed Paul on 4th so 2nd or 3d won`t be that bad. At current %(what`s counted so far), 19% Paul and 24% Newt, they both get 2 delegates and Romney gets 11.
If we get 2nd place from Newt, there`ll still be only 2 delegates. It would help though to score a 2nd place to prove Paul is the alternative to Romney and not Gingrich.

Thing is Gingrich had the momentum on his side after this 1st place finish in SC and 2nd place finish in Florida. Was bound to do well in Nevada also.

There's always some hope when the establishment counts the votes. But we're in a situation where the establishment is deciding what votes not to count.

I don't understand, according to http://www.google.com/elections/ed/us/results?gclid=CLnH042_ha4CFQQBQAodNTSp2w Romney has over 50% of the total so far, 5.1k to RP's 1.7k (50% of results in). So it looks like Romney has taken/will take Clark County fairly comfortably, I thought it was just a case of beating Gingrich by a wide enough margin to take RP up to 2nd overall in NV? Am I missing something?

Delegates are a total different thing. The ranking of this popularity vote have nothing to do with delegates. I bet we have the majority of delegates which we will take to the county meeting coming in March

we had many training sessions but we cannot control who comes and who actually becomes chair.
