spreading the message to the DEMS and getting them to vote for Dr. Paul in the 2/19 primary!

Here's why:

We can't win the WA primary - not the caucus - but the primary unless Dems vote for RP. Why they may do it is that the Republicans allocate delegates to the national convention from both the caucuses and the primary, the dems only use the caucuses. It's widely known among Republicans that Dems vote in the Republican primary. As long as they don't vote in another party's caucus, any registered voter may vote in the Republican primary since we're all effectively independents here.

It would be great if the grassroots could help us find out a way to sell this idea to Democrats (and then help us fund it). To win both votes in Washington could be a turning point for this election, especially if we pick up delegates by winning:

Alaska [Caucuses (Semi-Open(3)) 2/05 2/05 2/05 (Sunday, 30 Days) 29]

Montana [Caucuses (Closed)12 Primaries (Open) 2/05 (Caucus) 6/03 (Primary)
N/A 5/05 (Primary only)12 25]

and North Dakota [Caucuses (Open) 2/05 N/A 2/05 13 26] on Super Tuesday,




and do well in:

Maine [Caucuses (Closed) 2/01 to 2/03 1/17 2/01 to 2/03 (Days of Caucuses) 21]

Hawaii [Caucuses (Closed) 1/25 - 2/07 1/15 '07 - 12/26 (Friday, 30 Days) 20]





and these states on Super Tuesday:

Alabama Primary (Open) 2/05 N/A 1/26 (Saturday, 10 Days) 48

Arizona Primary (Closed) 2/05 1/07 1/07 (Monday, 30 Days) 53

California Primary (Closed) 2/05 1/22 1/21 (Monday, 15 Days) 173

Colorado Caucuses (Closed) 2/05 '07 - 12/05 1/07 (Monday, 29 Days) 44

Georgia Primary (Open) 2/05 N/A 1/07 (Monday, 29 Days) 72

Illinois Semi-Open(3) 2/05 N/A 1/08 (Tuesday, 27 Days)(3) 70 21

Minnesota Caucuses (Open) 2/05 N/A 1/16 (Wednesday, 20 Days) (6) 41

Mississippi Primary (Open) 3/11 N/A 2/09 (Saturday, 30 Days: 12 Noon) 39

Oklahoma Primary (Closed) 2/05 1/11 1/11 (Friday, 24 Days) 41

Tennessee Primary (Open) 2/05 N/A 1/07 (Monday, 30 Days) 55

Utah Primary (Closed) 2/05 1/07 1/07 (Monday, 30 Days)
Online Registration 1/21 In-Person County Clerks Office 36





If we pick up a couple of these states, and do reasonably well in the others on Super Tuesday a win in the 2/9 WA caucuses (coupled with news of NO candidate getting 51% in the 2/9 Louisiana primary) and THEN a Democrat fueled win in the 2/19 WA primary, we would set ourselves up nicely for Texas and PA and all the states that vote in March!


Some people are saying we should fund ads explicitly laying this out in the Stranger (http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Home) and the Seattle Weekly (http://www.seattleweekly.com/), two local leftist rags, as well as the local lgtb propaganda weeklies. Seattlites HATE Republicans and biannually re-elect the least-contested, most leftist member of the Congress, Jim McDermott. Obama ran TV spots in Iowa simply asking anyone who wanted "Change" to register Dem and vote for him. Republicans and Independents did it en mass.

Dems? We need their vote! About 350,000 of them to be more accurate.

Can you help us?

Unless something has changed very recently, there is no registration by party in WA (it's been a few years since I did my last campaign in WA but I believe it still is no registration by party, it's easy enough to check-out at the Secty of State website)

So, it becomes much more difficult to target voters by party as you must have alternative and very expensive means to identify D voters when in fact in Washington state technically there is no such thing.
