FML... I got elected Precinct Chair for SHOREVIEW P3 in RAMSEY COUNTY...

Anndddd my supporters suck, 3 didn't show up. So we got 4/11 delegates. And in terms of the straw poll:
Santorum: 12
Romney: 6
Paul: 5
Gingrich: 2

 

[cstarace]

Anddd Santorum is pulling away. It's all over in Minny.

 

[Kords21]

The WH is probably partying over Santorum doing so well.

 

[bluesc]

We have a shot at Montana and possibly South Dakota, Vermont, Alaska.

True. Some of the territories too.

 

[KingNothing]

so nobody knows the actually names of the college counties that were supposed to rock in?

I think Hennepin, Stearns and maybe Anoka. I'm not sure though. I just googled.

 

[GunnyFreedom]

And what percent of the 50+ crowd do we get...less than 10%? For you people to blame young people, or to call them useless is counter productive and insulting. The liberty movement will live and die with youth.

We aren't even campaigning for the 50+ crowd. If we were, we would have made it abundantly clear that Paul is the only one with a plan to save Social Security and Medicare for them. Instead all they hear is the opt-out plan for the under-25's. You can't win the votes of the people you don't campaign for.

I don't care if some people find the truth insulting, I will stand up for the truth even if I am the only person on the planet to do so. Every individual person on this planet has a personal choice that will dramatically affect their life and destiny, and that is the choice of whether to accept a hard truth or a comfortable lie.

Be insulted all you want, but for goodness sakes stand for truth!

ETA -- sure the language was over the top, but I credit that to someone who is in pain because he wants Ron Paul to win. Pain tends to make bitterness seep out in the language.

 

[Feelgood]

So far the results I am seeing are the typical pathetic results we have been getting. Nothing spectacular, and again, not a single win.

Sure am glad to see Minnesota coming through for us!!!!

 

[nicname]

What the hell? When are we going to start getting wins? This is getting annoying.

WHY?! Why wouldn't they show up for something so damned important?!

 

[RPsupporterAtHeart]

Can ANYONE, tell me how Santorum who has a much much smaller budget, has been destroyed just as bad as Ron in the last couple states and really has has only marginal coverage is about to SWEEP 2 caucus and 1 primary (which i know doesn't count), but this looks just terrible! Especially with Ron showing last in two of them.

 

[Hyperion]

Wrongo. Bernie Sanders may be a socialist on economic issues, but he's an ally on social issues. Santorum is an ally on virtually nothing.

Somehow I doubt Sanders is a big believer in the 10th amendment.On what social issues do you consider Sanders an ally? He's good on the Fed but his motivations are likelydifferent.

 

[The Gold Standard]

Every state that comes up we should do well in results in a Santorum media push or widespread voter fraud.

 

[hammy]

Can we please run third party and destroy the GOP.

It's all I ask.

 

[KingNothing]

That's right.

What about it?

Point was that some people are believing that college kids simply aren't going to caucus and vote in the primaries, and I'm one of them (who thinks that).

Now, I never said that none of them were going. It simply seems that where we were supposed to be strongest, we are not yet overwhelming.

The youth vote turns out in proportion to it's share of the population.

 

[musicmax]

i need the county names not the precincts

Hennepin (Minneapolis) and Ramsey (St. Paul). UM is spread across the two.

 

[IterTemporis]

i need the county names not the precincts

One of the University's Campuses is in St. Paul, which is Ramsey County.

 

[AlienLanes82]

What the hell? When are we going to start getting wins? This is getting annoying.

We are not entitled to wins. We will win if/when we earn it, through persuading currently unfriendly voters.

 

[kylejack]

Man, that is really ashame, if not for Santardum, we could have won MN. Even still, it's just pathetic people are actually giving him that much support. They really believe he would stand a chance against Obama? Obviously all the ex Bachmann supporters love him over there, since she was the same as him.

If it wasn't Santorum at top it would have been someone else. We're fighting against an Anyone But Paul phenomena.

 

[RestoreTheRepublic]

The Ron Paul campaign decided momentum wasn't important so they did nothing after NH
