Wyoming supporters better be ready to grab the 12 seats that are up for election in the next week. Every seat counts.

We shall soon see ;)
the thing of it is that until the state convention finishes it's often wise for RP delegates to hold off on declaring a candidate preference for as long as their process allows so as not to be singled out for extra harsh treatment.

Candidates for delegates must declare the candidate they are supporting at the County Conventions.

Well sure, I agree, but we can at least get an idea of percents without identifying anyone specific.

There's no way to even estimate. There's hundreds of precincts throughout the state and each precinct was allowed to elect a certain number of delegates. These delegates didn't have to state who they supported. If a precinct had 4 delegate positions and only 2 people showed up, those 2 became delegates without having to talk to anyone. It's near impossible to get an idea of how many delegates we have in any of the states right now.

But surely these ron paul people are going somewhere to coordinate on getting a game plan going as far as parliamentary stuff is concerned. Remember, they are voting on things like what to put on the state republican platform too.

Yes there is a Facebook group but there's more supporters not in the group than in it. Some counties are very organized but there are more counties without any organization.
