I just spoke to a woman over the phone with the Maine GOP. I asked her if they were going to count the votes and count it towards the grand total and also if they had rectified the precincts that had zero vote totals. She replied, "We're going to release a statement on this". When I asked at what time will it be released, she said, "sometime tomorrow".

Hmmm . . . My money is on them propping up the lie and giving us the shaft.

I have a feeling it will be something like...

"Romney wins by a larger margin!!! huh? We don't have the individual caucus results, we just thru it all in the bucket.."
--> "so, how are we gonna validate the numbers?"
"huh, you'll just have to take our word on it.."

I think the party is pulling in every favor and sense of duty and plans to flood the caucus in Washington County. The two colleges there which were in session last weekend now won't be as it is.

Whatever. We just have to take it as it comes. I wouldn't push more until after the caucuses on Saturday.

.FRIDAY NIGHT...MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN IN THE EVENING...
THEN MOSTLY CLEAR AFTER MIDNIGHT. LOWS IN THE UPPER 20S. WEST WINDS
10 TO 15 MPH. CHANCE OF RAIN 50 PERCENT.

.SATURDAY...MOSTLY SUNNY. HIGHS AROUND 40. WEST WINDS 15 TO 20 MPH.

Hey I heard sunburn can be bad for you, maybe they should push it back another week? ;)

Another stellar decision by the Maine GOP. "We'll have more Caucuses, and we'll tell you what we are going to do after we see the results."

adding more votes to romneys total to negate a possible large turnout for Paul in saturdays caucus . my guess .

I honestly don't think the colleges being out of session is that big of a deal. First - most of the students there probably don't live there or vote there. For those that do, well - they are still there and let's face it - only 8% actually get out and vote, which means maybe 8 folks or thereabouts one way or the other.

If that is the case and they don't vote because of this, they don't deserve Ron Paul.

Its Presidents day weekend, a lot of students might go away or go home for the long weekend..You know the Maine GOP have looked at all the timings on voting to give Mitt Romney the advantage.

Whoever it was that pointed out US Senator Olympia Snow smiling in a cheerful mode at the podium, before the announcement on 84% of the caucus vote called-it... this GOP caucus baby is corrupt.

Charles M. Webster and Vice Chair Ruth Summers know exactly what they are doing to ensure a Romney victory. Same for county GOP chairman/vices.
