I need to edit the time. It is 1-2:45 in Baton Rouge.

I can bring 2/3 people IF my kids don't come. That's still up in the air.

Sandy is just going down there because she has a daughter at LSU and she has to bring a computer to her anyway.

If anything, maybe we can caravan.

I have a friend at LSU and I'm trying to see if he wants to go... so I may drive straight to his house.

Nice! We need to ride out NV straight through to win Louisiana. A win in LA would be huge, given that there'll be a week of no votes on the Republican side until FL. How are we doing on delegates, I've heard on here that we could get as many as 21, including the later convention, but what's the voting situation on Tuesday - is that the primary that means nothing unless a candidate gets 51%?

I called several of the TV stations here in Baton Rouge a little while ago and they had not known about the event. I've forwarded the email from Andrew to them.

There's bound to be LOTS of folks in LA against the overseas occupations. Hit 'em up.

Its 21 district delegates who will vote on an additional 20 at large delegates (if no one gets 50%+1 at the primary)... for a total of 41 delegates Ron Paul can take.

Looks like I may be attending in New Orleans so I can have my parents babysit while I see him at the airport Hilton.

Aren't these events supposed to be for undecided voters? RP supporters keep hogging them!

I'm bringing a table and some flyers urging rally goers to vote in the caucus the next day. Man! This visit couldn't have hit at a better time!

It's for supporters and other onlookers.. the supporters draw other people to the crowd. I'm bringing friends who have never heard paul...

Maybe Paul should use the idea that all the money spent overseas could have helped states like Louisiana in times of need

Exactly. :)

I only wish we'd had a little more early warning.

Brent, looks like i"m going to Baton Rouge... probably will get there around noon. The BR group is setting up a table somewhere to hand out RP stuff. Everyone could meet there, or we could just all look for each other once we get there. I'm not sure who else is going to BR... I think most of our group is going to Shreveport.
