Washington Caucus Results Thread

Well, the polls seem to have gotten it wrong!

Drizzle drazzle drizzle drone, time for this one to go home. It will be interesting to hear how this gets spun. In the meantime, I'm outta here.

Bad day for Frothy.

Well I'm thoroughly surprised too. From all the info and reports I heard we either won King County or were very close AT LEAST.. So I was bummed when I saw the major difference... and honestly I will NOT be surprised if they cheated in King County. They are a fraud County and that chairwoman is a known cheat.

Someone should be bugging them. Seriously. Bug the vote counting rooms, the GOP headquarters, surreptitiously put a bug on their person, whatever has to be done: do it. If there had been a little camera in the ceiling recording the King-of-Crookery County officials counting the votes, and then deciding to change them, that would have been ludicrously explosive.

I think you guys are missing that most of us in King (myself included) are in Seattle or other lower income neighborhoods. In the rich areas it is Romney country, and rich people, unlike most of the low-income supporters I IDed, actually bother registering and showing up to vote.

Violate their liberties?

Is there a ward by ward or precinct by precinct breakdown anywhere for Seattle?

Yep, if you think that evil politicians have a legitimate liberty to have secrecy as they conduct illegal and dishonest subversions of the way the country is supposedly governed, for the purpose of robbing people and smashing their lives, then I am agitating for the violation of their liberties.

I don't happen to think any such "liberty" exists.

I think this was rigged too. I know that King County had way more of a showing for Dr. Paul. There is no way that he lost by that much. Anyone else feel like packing up, moving to a small country, take over their government, and start over?

That sounds like a great way to get shot If you want to move to a small county part-time and then not get involved with the government at all, Costa Rica isn't so bad.

For those that caucused in Washington today:

If you have not yet realized, Precinct Committee Officers (PCOs) are automatic delegates. It is too late to become one for this caucus, but you can become a PCO for the next two years by filing as a candidate for PCO for the August 7 primary.

The filing period begins June 7. Please mark down June 7 on your calendar and remember to file as a PCO. Each precinct only gets one PCO so try as best as you can to make sure only one Ron Paul supporter files as a PCO.

This is important guys, the liberty movement must continue and if we want to avoid the GOP `tricks´ that cost us votes and delegates WE NEED TO BE IN POSITIONS of power/influence at LOCAL GOP LEVELS!

Just checking in this morning, glad to see Paul eked out that 1% separation from Santorum. Be thankful for the little things!

Evidence of a reporting "glitch"? Google politics...

Check out this album of photographs from google and huffington post, percentages change, but votes stay the same...

do you have any evidence that was happening? Just curious, did you see the precinct counts change? The function to calc % is pretty simple. Divide the number reported by the total number. Unless they had the wrong total of precincts, why else would the percent change while no new votes come in?

Is this a problem with every election google posts? Also why did CNN have the exact same problem?

Seattle Times: Paul Edges Santorum for 2nd

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2017655790_caucuses04.html

At least we're avoiding the "virutal tie" bylines.

In Kennewick, hundreds of people were turned away from an overstuffed caucus site at the Kennewick Convention Center, according to the Tri-City Herald. Local party officials apologized.

Wilbur said those turned away had been late and that the results of those caucuses would stand. But some who spoke with the media challenged that, saying they showed up an hour early only to find out they couldn't get inside.

No word on how this is bad for Santorum... how will only start to "plunge" whenever the media says he is
