We Are In This Thing!

The % will go up over the next hour or two.

We have real support in Iowa, we have it everywhere.

Lets do it!

Was encourages...went from 45 - 65 reporting and we picked up a point...lets hope that is a trend.

[Mark37snj]

Alot of people are not patient. The big precincts where Ron gets most of his supports always come in last (Florida). The small 100 people towns report right away thats why for the first hour it was only about 200 people reported. ;)

[ForTheRevolution]

I wish...but from what I witnessed tonight, I'm doubting it

[Real_CaGeD]

still only 67%

I like the optimism but it just isn't going to happen. It's mathmatics.

I like the optimism but it just isn't going to happen. It's mathmatics.

The large precincts have not reported yet, thats at least 50,000 votes, where Ron Paul has most of his support. Same thing happens every year in every state. The Big Cities always changes things. :)

[Johnnybags]

Never mind these 200 vote counties?

Never mind these 200 vote counties?

i think we're doing great... what's w/ all the pessimism?

Alot of people here are young and impatient. They give up easily. It's why it's hard to have a real revolution.

[Real_CaGeD]

3 % behind the party base, we can catch them before dec 5th.

[Ron Paul Fan]

I just got back from the caucus. They had the whole precinct at one location for some reason, so it was crowded! I think the precinct voted Huckabee. I did get to shake Ron Paul's hand though! He was leaving as I was coming in! GO RON PAUL! I'm not discouraged at all by the result. I thought this was about where we'd end up. Hopefully it goes up a little as more results come in.

[Real_CaGeD]

we could garner 8% before feb 5th and win the nomination. The vote is split perfectly nationwide.

[Real_CaGeD]

We are only 3% behind NH leader.

[Mark37snj]

So far 93,042 votes have been counted. Does anyone know what they were expecting and/or the turnout at previous caucusses?

EDIT:
CNN says 114,000 Republicans showed up:
114,000 - 93,042 = 20,958

[Mark37snj]

The last numbers tallied:

Paul: 860+
Thompson: 397+
McCain: 95+

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES!!!!!!

Its STARTING!!!!!!!!!

EDIT: And thats 3% of the precincts reporting, the LARGEST ARE YET TO COME!! 15% LEFT, ALL BEAUTIFUL LARGE PRECINCTS!!!
