:eek:

[Orwell]

I'm not so good at addition. What does this put totals at? Granted, I'm not sure which numbers to go by. I've seen like 30 different vote totals for the state.

[dante]

So we won't catch Romney then.

111 votes short. see open thread

Sad that we couldnt even win after knowing for 1 week how many votes we needed to win

[AngryCanadian]

Oh Yeah!

Were the Wash. Co. results counted in public sight?

@nhfreedom Washington County ME #ronpaul 163 votes, Romney 80, Santorum 57, Gingrich 4 and 2 were undecided #mepolitics #yal #c4l #tlot

There is another caucus on March 3rd.

That's how they do it in Maine. Or least, that is how it was done at the super caucus on 2/11 in York County. Anyone could watch. Anyone could film. Anyone could take photos.

We dominated that county, nearly tripled the 2008 turnout. Went from 8 votes in 2008 for Ron Paul to 163 in 2012 for Ron Paul. That is impressive. Ron Paul got 53.2% of the vote in Washington county.

if we could do this in every county we would be unstoppable!
nice job

Most of Ron's county level wins are pluralities. He really got an absolute majority there however, and that's still a great victory for the local grassroots volunteers.

There seems to be a common theme with your posting. negative.

[BUSHLIED]

163 (Washington Co.) - 80 = +83 (RP's Wash Co diff) - 194 = -111 + 35 (RP's Hancock diff) = 76 votes shy on Romney

This is just based on the current GOP's numbers going into today. Ron wins in Hancock and Washington. Unless the votes in other counties were wrong, it is hard to see where we make up this difference.

Anyone know?

so did the opponents. we have a majority of the votes in a 4 man race. that's impressive.

Wery small win for man-kind.

It seem like Gingrich supporters understand political strategy and Santorum voters are about as clueless as one would expect.

“@BillNemitz: Final count: Paul 163, *Romney 80, Santorum 57, Gingrich 4, Undecided 2 #mepolitics”

Why is there an * next to Romney's name?

[Keith and stuff]

It seem like Gingrich supporters understand political strategy and Santorum voters are about as clueless as one would expect.

In All fairness, Santorum likely has many more supporters in ME than Ron Paul does. If ME had a primary instead of a caucus, Ron Paul would have very likely came in 3rd. It just so happens that they didn't support him enough to caucus for him. Perhaps some of the Santorum supporters even voted for Ron Paul.

Now if only we could get numbers like that in Washington State.

163 (Washington Co.) - 80 = +83 (RP's Wash Co diff) - 194 = -111 + 35 (RP's Hancock diff) = 76 votes shy on Romney

Anyone know?

Supposedly 6 towns in Hancock haven't reported yet. Castine is coming up March 3rd. The "recount" gave Romney 60 extra votes...if we can find anything to poke holes in any of those we can whittle this down! :)
