My family has lived here since before the revolutionary war. Thems of us what know, we tried our best. We showed poorly... Onward and upward.

Don't feel too bad, even where we did well we didn't get what was properly ours. Keep fighting, keep educating, keep your head up (or down if the bullets are flying...)

Same here. My family settled in Kentucky (and Tennessee) in that period and I was disappointed, especially of Wayne County, which is where much of my family lives.

What are you talking about? We did good. When I read this I thought we'd have like 3%... we have 7%

All you can do is your best. If you did that and it sounds like you did, hold your head high and know that we're right there with you.

At two different polling locations I noticed that 90% of voters were over 60.

7% is a hell of a lot better than 0%!!! Great job. Just think, that 7% will be 15-25% in a few years and then maybe 50-60% in another couple of years. Don't expect to beat down the monster GOP in one sitting; we'll have to take them to task a time or two!!! Thank God we have the momentum and desire; they're lazy old dogs.

Don't feel bad, expectations will be slanted. Early in the primary season, Iowa garnered a high percentage than New Hampshire and look at all the work that was done there. These ideas will get out.

Why don't the totals add up? cnn.com - 72 + 8 +7 +5 = 92%. Where is the other 8%?

7% is terrible considering that all other candidates have dropped out.

we also have 7% in oregon, and we had 7% in many other states, with 15k votes plus or minus 100 votes :::roles eyes::::. These stats and figures and %'s that always come in are really starting to stretch credulity........Correction, this whole god damn election is one big sham.

We only got 5% in AZ, over 20,000 votes (super Tuesday). We busted our butts for those votes. Don't worry, we will win in the long run. Keep on spreading the message.

I apologize for Miami-Dade county voting in Florida where Ron Paul only got about 1% of the vote.

Yes we did. We got 10% in Hardin county, with 6 months of sign waves, canvassing, weekly meetings, phone calls, rallies, fliers, prayer, emails,

GOP MEETINGS!!!! conventions................

This is the south..... its diffrunt here. I got 12 of 96 votes in our precinct. Sounds bad?? 2 were my husband BUT I that means I converted 10 people. Cracked 10 NUTS because I talked to all of them, and NONE were going to vote for him. NONE

Look at LaRue and what a wonderful friend of mine accomplished there. Nelson county, Warren, Nicholas, Fayette (lexington).

Then look at Elloitt. You wanna be a county chairman? Go to these places where less than 50 republicans voted.

Then look at the hard #s.... Jefferson county- state average-7% but THOUSANDS of Ron Paul supporters voted for him there today.

I have 13438 commrades and you have no idea how happy that makes me.

How did you convince them? Was it hard?

I feel for you. You tried. Our issue here is people actually LIKE McCain. They aren't so upset about him being the presumptive nominee- they LIKE him. *doh*

7% is terrible considering that all other candidates have dropped out.

If anyone waches the news (and that's the only source most people use, if any), McCain has been the only one running since Huck dropped out. 7% is an intended result of that.

What did you expect? Miami-Dade has a huge Cuban population. Ron Paul wants to lift the embargo against Cuba, talk with their leaders, and trade with Cuba which could improve conditions for the people that live there.

But Cuban Americans don't want that. They hate Castro so much that they don't care about helping their families. Isn't that sad? They would starve their families over there before they wise up to common sense and consider Dr. Paul's position. With friends and relatives like them who needs enemies? :eek:

To be brutally and painfully honest, its fairly guarnteed. The old folk (see above) 90% over 60... would have passed away.. as social security is bankrupt... shit house health care etc.... :confused: Survival of the fittest comes to mind...

But think of it this way. We got 5 times more votes than "Americas mayor". Again.

And 72% said not McCain.

McCain gets 99% of the media coverage and 72% of the vote.

Ron Paul gets .0002% of the media coverage and gets 7% of the vote.

Hmmm, I can't figure out why our vote is so low. I haven't seen Ron Paul once on my TV in months. In fact I would say I've seen him on my TV a total of about 4 times since January 2007. I just can't figure out why we didn't win because that should be plenty of coverage. This is sarcasm by the way.
