Northwest Jersey and Hudson county also did well. Hudson is a complete surprise since its very urban, but NW is probably the most independent part of the state. Its probably a bit like Maine or NH.

Of course they can, when only supporters of one particular candidate bother to turn out in droves.

All those Gingrich, Santorum voters simply stayed home, as well as any soft Ron Paul voters who didn't bother voting due to the mistaken assumption that Romney is the presumptive nominee.

I have a sick feeling that Romney "supporters" still outnumber Ron Paul supporters.

Just keep winning as many of those all important party positions as possible as we take over the Republican party from the inside out so that what happened in Nevada in 2008 will end up turning into Nevada and Iowa in 2012. We may have narrowly lost a lot of delegates in states like Missouri and Washington at state level, but in 2014 and 2016 those will be Rand Paul states hands down.

Not really surprised about the results in CA. However I am very saddened over South Dakota.

Checking the central committee members is going to take longer.

We got 4 of 7 in my district, though. Two of our people lost.

Surprised Ron did better in Northern California. Way to go Santa Cruz, Co. Great job. Basically I am seeing double the numbers in my district/precinct from 2008. The fact is in California this time around there was not much visible support for Ron Paul like there was in 2008. Most hard core supporters were working behind the scenes. In 08 we used to have dozens of people turn out for sign waves and there was basically a meetup in every city. In my local meetup in 08 we would turn out 20 people for a sign wave. This combined with the brutal lack of coverage and the meme that Ron dropped out hurt us.

Pretty sad showing for Liberty candidates in Orange County, California. Of all the central committee people from VoteLiberty.info I see only two made it on the committee.

Actually, true northern California is rural as is central (non coastal) California. I always see Ron Paul signs there, year round, election year or not, actually.

2 is better than none

2 is better than none

Browsing through LA county I see we did well in the 39th. We picked up all seven slots. I was sad to see that LA Mary (Wiliamson) who we have seen on RT did not prevail in her run in the 50th AD.

 

[sailingaway]

Orange County is a Republican power center and contested.

I went through the web page for LA county and we seem to have won 50 of 113 slots OR 52 if our two write ins made it in a district where only four (all ours) were shown to win on the ballot (meaning there are three slots on the webpage unaccounted for.) There is another beyond our writeins available if there weren't other write ins we don't know about, and in AD 53 there are two extra seats not awarded by ballot unless there are write ins we don't know about -- all five of our folks in that AD won.

Then there are 63, 64, 67 and 70 ADs which were not on the web page, but we only tried for 7 of the 28 slots available -- but I don't know if anyone else tried for them either. So we don't have a majority on paper. In reality, a lot will depend on who actually shows up, I would think. We have a lot. People who were recruited just to block us might not actually attend meetings.

 

[Keith and stuff]

We were dicked by Santorum and Gingrich staying in.

Santorum and Gingrich didn't stay in. They dropped out long ago. Still, a dropped out Santorum was about as popular as Paul in SD and NM. I guess that means there is just about no support for Paul in SD and NM. Heck, his vote totals dropped from 2008.

Lot's of people said that since Paul did well in MT in the caucus in 2008 that he would do well in MT this year. Well, this year, there was just a primary in MT (for popular vote measuring) and we saw how well Paul did in the primary. That is really going to deflate the egos of a few people on this forum.

It means that people who were putting in votes 'against Romney' saw no reason to not register it by voting their favorite, even if they would have preferred Ron to Romney. After the campaign email, people widely thought they had all dropped out. There was apparently an internal SD poll that had Ron at 25% against Romney, but that wasn't the choice on the ballot.
