Romney had 52% of the delegates, we had 35%. The deal was struck and we got
2 Ron Paul delegates out of 28 going to the state convention and got 6 alternates. First of our alternates is at position #4 so a good chance to be seated.
It is disappointing, but easily explainable since we had 160 precincts in LD48, most of the precincts elect 2 delegates +1 automatic delegate (PCO).
By my count we did won the majority of delegates from the precincts in LD48, but, after you plug in PCOs (all but 7 are for Romney), we were outvoted.
We had about 270 delegates attending and with about 140 Romney guys and 128 ours 1 santa 1 gingrich. Just a few more people and we would have owned it. A few Santorum and Newt guys switched to Romney, others did not come.
