Washington Caucus Results Thread

[opinionatedfool]

Straw poll votes don't matter.

We are winning the delegates BIG TIME!!!!

YES!!!

 

[RPit]

I am a delegate and according to the account of delegates we got, we have roughly 60% of all delegates... And by the time we get to the State Convention we will likely have 60-70% of the delegates...

I'm going to go read the party rules and see how party chairman's are elected, and if we can do anything about it we'll get that chairman removed and replaced. At least I will move that motion because I've had it with the bullshit.

i dont think we can depend entirely on the delegate system to win. there must be something else up the campaign's sleeve. i doubt they are naive enough to believe some crap wont be pulled later on at the convention.

With us getting most of the WA today, we'll prob be pretty close to Romney on delegate counts. I would guess within 20 or so.

So what's going on with Chelan County?

0 results.

There aren't enough votes in that county for santorum to win... The vote gap in King County (50% still left) is going to remain pretty steady and Santorum will lose. At least I hope he will. There is no way in hell is Santorum going to be above 20% in King County.

Ron Paul, a candidate who got 2% of media coverage, got 25%.

Rick Santorum, a candidate who got 50% of media coverage, got 24%.

find something and nail it ... ps good for you!

Still, not winning Spokane outright is abysmal. Early reports had us at 50%+ there, we got 47% there in 2008...

city vs county maybe. We got 50% in Legislative district 3.

this has been quite an evening!

 

[GraniteHills]

Ron Paul, a candidate who got 2% of media coverage, got 25%.

Rick Santorum, a candidate who got 50% of media coverage, got 24%.

That is PRECISELY the way to look at this.

It's heartening, even.

Geeezus fucking cockroach...no one has won or lost anything. You people pinning your hopes and dreams on a facade is embarrassing.

How many god damn times does it have to be explained?...

There is no reason to be condescending. I never invented the "Beauty Pageant" status quo that seems to mesmerize people, neither have others. But be real. Homo Sapiens like #1. Why do you think we sit in front of the T.V. awaiting the outcome of a game that has no real meaning? It is innate, and it does matter... Please don't attempt to trivialize the way people are feeling.

None of the other candidates have ever been part of a brokered convention. Ron has.

 

[Agorism]

If they had had a primary and a caucus on different days like last time, we would have won.

Nevada has bound its delegates this time. Basically in place that becomes too grass roots oriented, the party changes the rules on the next go around to stop Paul.

I can see Maine changing its rules for 2016.

Ahead of the Washington contest, Romney led in the overall count with 173. Santorum had 87, followed by Gingrich with 33. Paul had 20.
It takes 1,144 delegates to clinch the nomination.

I am not sure that is the case since my understanding is that we currently own their state GOP, or will by state convention.

This last 17% is taking too long too count...

What is right can never fail, it is only a matter of time...

The people who are elected delegates are diferent then the ones on the screen that say 3. Yes Ron Paul has a hell of a lot more then 3.

Just b.c you win the popular vote does not mean you win. People stay after the vote to "caucus" and people are elected to represent a canidate in Tampa FL. The people that are becoming delegates to go to Tampa are mostly Ron Paul supporters. THATS HOW WE ARE WINING!

The people who ELECT the people that are becoming delegates to go to Tampa are mostly Ron Paul supporters.
