I wondered same thing. Maybe because it is just 600,000 ppl?

Why does no one live in wyoming?

Hopefully they will get attention on Saturday, unless RP wins.

Only around 300,000 Iowans came out tonight...But then again it was just a primary.

..it's like the dessert you forget on purpose. We expect an emotional boost from Wyoming.. home of Dick Cheney and 100,000 cattle rustlers and wench hustlers... hmmm I can smell tha fresh bright air from here.. can you too?

Tell us what to do. Thanks.

the media doesn't mention wyoming cause it's only a republican caucus, not a democratic one, and participation in it is funky

because there are not 1000s of Christian whackjobs running to the polling places?

Wyoming only has half its delegates up for grabs right now.. the other half is in a couple months or so.. kinda wacky

Start with www.meetup.com and see if there is a Ron Paul group already in your area.

I wish people on this forum wouldn't use terms like "Christian whackjobs." It's true that there are many Christians who are also whackjobs, as well as ignorant enough to consider Huckabee so great that they'll schlep to a caucus for him. But what about us Christians who are Ron Paul supporters? All bet there are a lot of non-religious people supporting Hillary and Giuliani.

I read WY has 1/2 of its delegates slashed and they decided to push all the delegates from the polling on 5th to make it important. So almost all of the delegates will be decided by this saturday's poll.

"Wyoming Republicans have tried to keep Saturday's county conventions relevant by sending all 12 delegates chosen to the national convention. They will hold back all but two that were chosen at the state convention in May."

I think in Wyoming only like 800 some odd county delegates get to vote at the state convention. A chunk of those are party officials, the others are selected at county delegate conventions. These county conventions have been going on over the past few weeks. Letters have already been written and mailed off to every single one of these electors. The only thing to do now is try to convince some of those 800+ people to support Paul, and that's about it for Wyoming.

Because it is like 3 cows and a chicken voting?

You shouldn't go hating the christians because they are the ones showing up to caucuses. You should hate every person that was an eligible voter who did not vote for ron paul.

No, 12 of them will be elected tomorrow. Only the final 2 wait until May to be picked.
