We have one delegate candidate pledged for Ron Paul here in the Virgin Islands. I don't think it'll be hard to get this delegate elected, it'll only take a few votes. I would guess turnout for the Republicans will be anywhere from 100-200 people.
The deadline for declaration has passed, but as the caucuses approach on April 5th it'll be worth looking into getting possible write-in candidates for Paul. There are also a bunch of delegates for Romney that will now be looking for someone to support, and apparently 8 undecided.
As far as winning the straw poll, which would give us one of those elusive 5 states for the convention, it's going to be an uphill battle. People here basically see the MSM coverage on CNN, etc. and probably don't know much about Paul.
