[RonRules]

Finally one good action for HQ.

Any Louisiana Locals have a guess on the outcome of this?

if you want to see a detailed breakdown of their "official results" check out my analysis here.


it looks like they kept and counted almost exactly one-third of all provisional ballots cast in every district and in every district, 80-85% of those were cast for RP delegates.

So they gave every candidate except Paul two more days to get more delegates in, or was Paul allowed the two extra days as well?

When it was the GOP who did this, what good is filing a complaint with the GOP?

That's like being broken in to and then filing a complaint with your burglar, who will laugh and throw it in the trash.

Isn't there an authority above the GOP that are able to come down on them? I don't understand.

Only 15 delegates were elected to each Congressional District, Ron Paul already had 15 delegates running in each District.

So, technically he COULD have gotten more delegates, but it would not have helped him to do so. However, it did benefit all the other candidates, none of which had a full slate of delegates.

I was wondering the same thing.

The Gop has really shown their true colors in this election screwing Ron Paul over multiple times.

Bravo. You have lost my support for good and the only reason I'm even registered under your party is to vote for Ron.

Ron Paul is the Jesus of the Gop he has come to save them. Unfortunately they have rejected him and will not rest until he is crucified.
