    Default Ron Paul Support by Region

    Ron Paul's Percentage of the Vote by Region

    As states vote, I'll update this post.

    Ron Paul tends to do better in caucus states than primary states. Most of the caucus states are in the Midwest, Mountain West and Pacific Northwest. The Mid-Atlantic and Southeast average is shown including and excluding VA.

    Want me to add a region? Tell me the name of the region and the states inside the region. See an error? Let me know.

    Ron Paul Support by Region:
    1. Northern New England 28%
    2. New England 22%
    3. Canadian Border 22%
    4. Pacific Northwest 20%
    5. Northeast 19%
    6. West Coast 18%
    7. East Coast 16%
    8. Mid-Atlantic 15%
    9. Midwest 15%
    10. Great Lakes 14%
    11. Mountain West 13%
    12. Southeast 12%
    13. Southwest 11%
    14. Mexican Border 10%

    This caused the Gulf Coast to drop from 7% to 5%. It also brought the Southeast down slightly.

    The final HI results are in. Paul's percentage of the vote in HI increased from 18% to 19%. This caused the West Coast to drop from 24% to 23%.

    You cannot give equal weight to each contest. There are a considerable amount of numerical vote difference in each state.
