That qualifies for delegates. You need 3.5% in Oregon, and I think we have it.

How come Dems 25% reporting and 19% Reps reporting? I don't get it? Should they not be reporting at the same time?

That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

First of all, there's not going to be the same number of democrat voters as republican voters, so it will take a different amount of time to count the votes. Second, what makes you think they have the same amount of people counting the votes for each party? They are not getting paid to do it, it's a volunteer position, so vote counters are only as many as who wants to volunteer to do it.

With the dems having a much higher voter turnout this election, they probably also have more people volunteering to count votes, which means faster counting, and thus faster reporting.

I was checking out an election website and it showed the state of Maine with only 68% of the precincts reporting. It took place February 2, and Ron Paul had 19%. What gives?

Saturday, February 2
ME 851 19% 0 68%

I am from Oregon and the Benton County(south of Salem) organizer. I think 15% in my county is very good. That is a whole new group of liberty lovers to power the Revolution...we will not go away!!!! 15% can change things...this is for the long haul folks! We will not stop! We will not be denied....

The same as 9u1l1ani's 9.11 percent in three counties?


Campton - 604 votes
VOTE COUNT METHOD: Hand Counted Paper Ballots
- Giuliani = 55 votes = 9.11%

Hampton - 3,141 votes
VOTE COUNT METHOD: Diebold Accuvote optical scan ; contractor: LHS Associates/John Silvestro
- Giuliani = 286 votes = 9.11%

Sandwich - 395 votes
VOTE COUNT METHOD: Hand Counted Paper Ballots
- Giuliani = 36 votes = 9.11%


Mouse over the totals. It's real.

New Hampshire Primary - Jan. 8, 2008

This is the problem I face, being who I am. I am a CTer, I am CONVINCED our Government is not only corrupt, but it is OUT TO GIT US.

I have been part of the reason "normal" folk like yerself have been "labeled" as being "Conspiracy Theorists' for questioning ANYTHING.
I am sorry, it was not my intention.

14% for Ron Paul is disappointing....considering that the drop-out candidates are finally absent and it's only McCain vs Paul....and some of that 14% are protest votes and not Ron Paul supporters...86% is McCain's highest percentage so far

"unnotticed"? What does that mean? ;)

And I don't understand your question, so I guess it went unnotticed by me. Therefore, the answer is yes.

For those that want to help create an even better showing in Idaho, the opportunity exists to make a difference by sponsoring a High Tide ad that can be seen by an audience of 100,000 for only $30. :)

I'm not from Idaho, I'm from Iowa. Corn, not potatoes. :)

The video is awesome grassroots at its best, can reach a lot of people on the cheap, and since HQ is putting any out ads, why the heck not?

I came into this tent too late for my state, so if I can make an impact in a state other than my own by donating to a worthy cause, its the least I could do.
