Anytime I post a Thread about Ben Swann, It's important for me to re-post about Ben's employer, Raycom Media. (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?357477-Bringing-Attention-to-Ben-Swann-s-Employer-Raycom-Media)

picked up 47 in waldo, 16 in waterville = 63 vote pick up. as a result, 194 votes is now 131.

So its a current gap of about 150 and at least 350+ votes still to be added, not including Washington. Good stuff :)

We should all be 100% behind ben swann, he presents an unbiased balanced veiw.

An unbiased balanced view is always favourable to the man who speaks the truth

Did Rachel Maddow talk about Maine again tonight? I thought she was gonna try to interview someone else in Maine.

The higher the vote turnout, the better for Dr. Paul. The Maine GOP bigwigs are picking the soap up off the floor as we speak.

We seriously have a chance to win Maine here. With a projected turnout this weekend to be over 500, in both Hancock and Washington County we need to GOTV. This is a serious grassroots organization we have here.

Rons gonna need large turnouts in both those two counties to pull it off. Im sure the Mitt office is still up there, trying to turn out as many as they can, sure hope that is true for us too.

Is Hancock a good or bad county for us?

I'm sure the GOP is! Their reputation is on the line. If Mitt 'wins anyhow', the whole thing will be said not to matter.

If we don't take Maine now, it's our fault, and no one elses.

We can easily utilize the GOPs dirty tricks against them.

We really need to get a cable tv network going. Ben could have his own news show. Get real journalists to do the news, and get guys like the Judge on there for the commentary shows. If we can raise millions for liberty candidates, we should be able to get something like this going. We would just have to get ownership worked out.

There is a correction on the website saying 50 new votes for Romney instead of 24. So Paul only gained 21 votes in Waldo County + 16 in Waterville (+ 2 in Rome tonight) = a margin of 155.

Yeah, are you all counting the +2 in Rome from tonight? Every vote counts in a margin this small.

Did you give Romney his votes? I think its more like 150.

I think he took those into consideration. Those are the relative values between Paul and Romney.

the new lead seems to be down to 131, from 194.
it is doable !!

Webster HAS to go and we HAVE to win this !

just to give you my best estimate

194
-2 in Rome
-16 in Waterville
-24 in Waldo
-2 in New Portland
+32 if the Portland numbers are indeed flipped (official reports are that paul received 106 and romney received 90, when it should've been the other way around)

182 is the magic number (most up to date i can give). if the new portland numbers aren't reported tomorrow, this will prove that numbers are STILL not correct in some areas.

168 is the magic number (most up to date i can give). if the new portland numbers aren't reported tomorrow, this will prove that numbers are STILL not correct in some areas.

Wouldn't it be +32 it portland if the numbers were switched around. Going from a 16 vote lead to a 16 vote loss is a 32 vote difference that hurts our favor.

Is it because we might take Maine, or because of Ben Swann's uber-manliness?
