It's down towards the bottom of the article

The AP counted as guaranteed those filings for reserved or uncontested at-large seats. The results show that while Ron Paul has the most overall delegates, 299, all but eight filed for at-large seats. Of those, only 46 are uncontested. Romney, meanwhile, saw 227 supporters register to be delegates

We have the most overall delegates, but most of ours have to be elected. Romney has the most of the automatic delegates, who don't have to be elected.

It's ok, we knew that was the case going in, the party executive committes have been worked by Romney and Thompson worked the legislature, so this was our only way in was through the 'at large' process.

We received more mention in the article than Huckabee or Giuliani did.

Actually with a new count Romney has 239 or some such I think :/
