50th in population, this should be fairly easy to canvas. Any efforts going on right now? Time's ticking, let's make a difference!

We need a definitive plan for every single state

- Door-to-door
- DVD handouts
- Phone canvassing
- etc

your from Australia so you have a pass :)
but everyone should take the time to make a mini strategy for their state (like deadlines, delegates, etc) and submit it here. Then everyone here can add to it. We need one done for every state. Some are obviously done already.

bump - WY definitely needs more attention here. RP just needs a couple good showings to 'surprise' everyone.

Not quite that easy to canvas. It may only have 500k people but its spread over an huge area. Much of the state is remote areas. Your best bet is to stick to the relatively large towns in Wyoming.

My parents lived in Laramie for a good while. I'm aware of this. Casper, Cheyenne, Laramie, and Jackson are great places to focus on, with smaller towns canvassed as a secondary priority.

I want to get some rest, ok? ;)

Generally, forget it! Wyoming is a closed caucus state and the precinct caucuses are finished. The best chance to convert delegates committed to Romney lies with the various precinct delegates already committed to Ron Paul. I'm one of the latter. On Jan 5th, the precinct delegates for each county will select 12 delegates total to the national convention. Another 13 delegates to the national convention will be selected at the state convention over Memorial Day. Your sole option at this point is to contact the various delegates to the county caucuses BEFORE Jan 5th and try to convince them to change their vote to Ron Paul. Romney has a lot of supporters in Wyoming so your focus has to be on convincing them, i.e. the precinct delegates, to switch allegiance to Ron Paul. Personally, I and few other Paul supporters are busy with our own county.

Wyoming is 50th among Internet penetration, Iowa is about 47th.

Yeah, but more residents of Wyoming have donated to the campaign in proportion to the poulation than in Iowa.

I find Wyoming confusing. Will the results be announced Saturday?
