I hope those in the 3 states voting today are using myspace, facebook or whatever to try and get Dr. Paul votes out today.

With the bad weather we need to get them out the doors while there is time left.

Maryland, DC and Virginia get them to the polls. Hope the McCain voters stay warm and dry.

My friend in MD said that there is ice and snow all over the place and that there is an extremely low turn-out. He sees RP signs on overpasses on 695. When he was voting, he said it was nearly empty. Many senior citizen events this evening have already been canceled due to the weather according to announcements made on WBAL radio.

Incidentally he said he also heard a call on the radio from a RP supporter who said "Its too cold to stand out here with this sign for more than an hour".

With the MSM calling mcain the winner, I have a feeling there are many mcain voters staying home assured he has allready won:)
Go vote Ron Paul !

This bodes well for anyone but McCain, I wouldn't be surprised now if he lost all three primaries today.

Love it! Is McCain worth this to anyone? Remember Valley Forge!

Are there any large colleges where people can press them to get out and vote for Dr. Paul?

I hope they are working on that in light of the low turnout.

An hour is good!

Take turns. Go to the polls with your signs.

Let them know Ron Paul is going to win.

Too late now, but for future events with bad weather forecasts, perhaps RP supporters can arrange transportation to the polls?

I thought we were on that before the bad weather.

I was out there from 730 to 230 with a half hour break. It's cold, but it ain't THAT cold. I think I may have gotten some sympathy votes for RP.

Headline on FoxNews right now that "turnout reported heavy in virginia". I hate to be watching FauxNews, but on a day like today I think it is important to see how they are going to rig it.

Why bother, we clearly saw last time in WA w/ 60% reporting Ron Paul had 54% vs McCains 12%...So I ask WHATS THE POINT???

This is MD, plus I've heard it is low for Republicans, (6 in one precinct, 5 for Huck, 1 for Paul, 0 for McCain :D on the Virginia subforum).

Thank you for standing out in the cold to get Dr. Paul votes.

I think turnout is bigger in Virginia but not Maryland. The question is if it is heavy for Dem's and not for McCain.

Virginia loves Obama. And McCain. Many more Democrats than Republicans voting.

Quite possible. Many of them can hide their own Easter Eggs with impunity.

bumping to make sure every Dr. Paul vote gets out today before the polls are closed.

Let no one forget to vote today in those three states.

CNN reports that Maryland polls are ordered to remain open until 9:30pm EST due to weather and traffic problems.
