Running as a Ron Paul commited delegate fo St. Thomas Virgin Islands

How could this mess happen?

Ron Paul delegates got combined the most votes but will get only one out of six delegates!

Seems like the votes for Ron Paul delegates were too split! They should have better organized themselves, I think.

VI GOP 2012 Caucus Results (Unofficial)

Territory Wide Totals:
[...]
384 total cast

112 to Paul (29%) Won one delegate

101 to Romney (26%) Won three delegates plus three RNC member pledge. (Pick up a uncommitted delegate after the balloting for a total of seven.)

23 to Santorm (6%) No delegates

18 to Gingrich (5%) No delegates

130 Uncommitted (34%) Two delegates but one changed to Romney after the vote totals were announced

[I cant give the Link for this, as I have no permission for it for I have not written a post yet. But simply go to the VI GOP page (vigopDOTcom) to see it, as well as for the results of the single delegate candidates)

Hey!

It is Ron's FIRST popular vote win!!!

I'm mighty fond of those islands!!!
 
MaxiVI, you did it! You are now a legend!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

One more delegate. Racking 'em up.
 
Here's a comment from VI GOP caucus results page: http://vigop.com/2012/03/vi-gop-2012-caucus-results-coming-soon/

Worth noting, this was NOT a primary/caucus where you vote for a candidate, this was a caucus where you vote for *up to 6* delegates. So comparing a total of votes cast for delegates listed by a candidate is misleading, because there was no need to “spread” votes among those delegates, all a RONPAUL supporter had to do was vote for all six, and they’d each have at least 29

MaxVI, if you read this, can you explain the delegate process in the Virgin Islands and tell us whether this comment is accurate?
 
MaxiVI, much appreciation!!! Way to go!
Seems like a small thing for such a great feat, but +rep to you sir!
 
Huge impact is right. It's like The Butterfly Effect. National news debating what a win is getting press for Dr. Paul.
Bottom line; My son and I are going to Tampa Baby!!!
