Holy hell I'm on the edge of my seat. I can't stop clicking and watching the results. We're going to have the delegates from this state for sure!

45 is the margin paul won by.

75-30 is 45

 

[PaulSoHard]

Wow awesome picture!!!!!

But wait. Santorum has 30 marks, yet has "45" written underneath, what gives. Paul beat him 75-30...by 45 votes. Is that it? Not 75-45 by 30 votes....I hope Santy didn't magically get 15 more votes....

There's another 15 written on the corner under the "Undecideds" not sure what that's for.
I like how they use Willard instead of Mitt, just sayin

....and why wasn't those maybies in your car when you went? No excuse.

I met them through canvassing. They didn't want to give me their phone numbers and email addresses, so I didn't really expect them to show up. I live in a very tough precinct to canvass, because it consists of 1 block of houses and then 3 secured access apartment buildings. The only thing I could do was flyer bomb the parking lots and approach people as they were going to their apartment.

Dominated my precinct. 5 Paul (included 1 converted undecided) 2 Romney (who tried to cheat and claim that one was a PCO when they weren't to steal a delegate slot). Only RP delegates and alternates.

Ok, thanks. But I still say that it is 29. Look at the very last one. It only has 3 lines and then 1 diagonal.

My precinct was in Bothell WA (suburb north of Bellevue, South of Everett.. Suburb between 2 of the 6 biggest cities in the state), but a small part of Bothell... My precint had 4 Paul supporters and 1 Santorum, 2 delegates (including myself were Paul delegates)... The place I Caucused must have had 1500 people, basically Bothell, half of kirkland and Kenmore..... This whole place was dominated by Paul and Romney supporters with Santorum and Gingrich not even coming close... I admit, this was Romney country, but a good 40% of the people were Paul supporters and I guess the bright side of this is that this is actually Romney country side of Washington, which is the East side of Seattle (Bellevue, Bothel, Redmond, Kirkland, Issaquah, Kenmore), which is considered the wealthy part of the state... but most delegates in the whole venue (Bastyr University Chapel) were Paul delegates... If you are looking for straws of hope for a straw poll win, you could say that even in Romney territory, it looked like Paul still took about 40%.. So if Paul country (the South, East, North and FAAAAR West) holds out as expected, then thats how we can win. We do well in Romney country, but do REALLY well in Paul friendly areas... The negative side is that turn out was WAAAAY more than expected... Oh well... I was negative nancy on this forum yesterday, when stating that we are "thru" if we lost the straw poll here, but this place reinvigorated me, let me explain why...

I had 17 people all over the state voting.. You know how many stories I heard of people who were Romney supporters saying they LOVE Ron Paul? TONS! People who were Romney supporters were saying "well, I dont like Romney, but its all we got.." But Paul supporters were saying "NO BODY BUT PAUL!" and during caucus speeches, people who were Romney supporters all shook their heads yes when Paul supporters spook, but that they just listen to the media too much... People, Paul is not hated at all, like you hear on the radio. He is loved, but these people are just brainwashed. We just need more time and work and we will win in the end! This movement is bigger than Paul (Paul is just the figure head and symbol) and we will win! I THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!

Very good news, thanks for the info.

I think you're spot on. As long as we take big chunks away from Romney in Seattle area, we will be on a good track. Romney needs to win those areas to make up for where we could win in the east and central. Even Santorum helps us. But glad to see we had solid support.

the problem is there aren't 50 more Pauls lined up or people as good. There's sort of a sharp drop off, except maybe for brand new folks whose strenght to stand against offers hasn't been tested.

75-30 is 45

Rattlesnake how would you say it's looking for us in Washington man??

 

[PaulSoHard]

Off a "Washington for Ron Paul" FB page:

One of two locations reported; 179 mt, 106 rp, 87 rs, 44 gingrich, 17 uncommitted. Thurston county. Other location bigger and coming later this afternoon

 

[justatrey]

From some guy on Facebook:

My friend Kenny just sent me this-
Ron Paul won our straw poll of the 20 precincts caucusing at Chief Umtuch Middle School in Battle Ground Wa. If you don't think your vote counts here are the results:

Ron Paul 165
Mitt Romney 160
Rick Santorum 130
Newt Gingrich 47

 

[CTRattlesnake]

Rattlesnake how would you say it's looking for us in Washington man??

Decent.

Gun to my head, I still say Romney wins...maybe something like 35-33. But the thing is its hard to tell from just a few spotty reports.

I think we did very well out east and in Spokane. Clark county and vancouver is a bit of a mystery and could really swing it either way. Seattle proper seemed to be good for us, while the suburbs went to mitt big time, although in some cases it was close.

Really too hard to tell.

 

[ssjevot]

lol how did play out with the fake pco?

Honestly really badly at first with her being a jerk, but that is what won us the undecided and she chilled out after we skunked her and didn't vote for her for shit.
