In 2010 CPAC had ~10,000 attendees, of which ~2,400 voted. Voting was Thursday and till 1pm Fri.
This year, pre-registrations are up 20% from 2010, so expect 12,000 attendees.
In 2010 the outcome of the vote was:
Paul... 31% (742 votes)
Romney .. 22% (527 votes)
Palin...7%
Pawlenty..6%
Pence ...5%
Gingrich...4%
Huckabee..4%
Daniels ...2%
Santurom..2%
Thune....2%
Barbour..1%
Other...5%
Undecided..6%
2395 votes were cast
YAL has 400 students registered and others that want to come.
Who knows how many via C4L
It's a good bet that the bulk of that 2,000 person increase in pre-registrations can be attributed to two factions: liberty/tea party (votes split between Palin/Paul) and those reportedly bought by Romney (paid attendees/voters who are bussed in - can we verify this is happening?)
If the bump in pre-registrations represents ppl that will vote, there is a good chance that we will loose this one unless we do something very different from the current game plan.
As to hearing Ron and Rand talking, on Thurs:
8:00pm-10:00pm Liberty Forum Thurgood Marshall Ballroom South/West
Don't miss what will be the event at CPAC that will have EVERYONE talking. Ron Paul and Rand Paul will speak on issues of life, liberty and restoring our Constitution. This "Meet the Press" style discussion will be hosted by Tom Woods. This personal format grants you an inside look into the thoughts of the freedom movement's biggest stars.
Seating is extremely limited and first preference is given to those who have a CPAC ticket. Buy yours today!
That ballroom seats 1,200.
Ron Speaks on Friday:
3:30pm-4:00pm Ron Paul Formal Speech Marriott Ballroom
Come hear Ron Paul's official CPAC speech to thousands of attendees of the conference. Be sure to get there early!
Seating capacity is 4,200
On Thursday, Rand speaks:
3:45pm-4:15pm Rand Paul Formal Speech Marriott Ballroom
Come hear Senator Rand Paul's official speech to thousands of attendees of the conference.
and C4L talks about their future plans:

Join Campaign for liberty as we unveil our presence at CPAC, cover the important issues of the day and announce our plans for the upcoming year.
That is going to be interesting, as they don't have the non-profit status to support a political candidate.
The above 2 events are in the Maryland Ballroom that seats 425.
