Matt, do you have any official word from HQ? I've reported everything I know to Pete and JB but haven't heard a peep from HQ yet

I'm sure Pete is in the middle of it right now and not able to do much at the moment. The PCC may want to keep the results on the dl for now because they may not want to tip their hand at the State Con, but we'll have to see what they decide to announce.

This I know, Fox, CBS, NBC, ABC and MSNBC wont interrupt scheduled programming to announce a Paul win in Louisiana as breaking news...

Though they should...

Matt, there is no possibility they don't know if they won or lost. There are only 6 districts.

[The Magic Hoof]

If I could of only bought a van and stuffed it with 27 hippies that I forced to register Republican, we'd have won my polling place. However we did win the district so it's ok!

What's wrong with all the results that have been collected in all of the other threads?

[hueylong]

I just got a text from David Johnston (RP Director for Congressional District 3) --

"I just got the call from the State Director in Baton Rouge. It's official we won 4 and 1/2 districts! That means We WON LOUISIANA! We get the delegates and will control the state!"

[Aratus]

kyngefish, yes!

[hueylong]

Really good stuff, Man.

[Jovan Galtic]

[No1butPaul]

Yeah Baby!!!!

[sailingaway]

Wonderful!!!

[hueylong]

David further texted: "As official as they get. Pictures of all total sheets around the state, added and checked by Baton Rouge staff."

[Tyler_Durden]

I'm a bit behind on things. Did we win LA as in the delegates in Tampa from LA will be able to vote for Ron in the first round?

10 will be bound to Rick Santorum and 5 to Romney at the National Convention as a result of the primary last month. If we are able to unbind them at state, I don't know.

But it looks like we will be getting at least a plurality from the state of Louisiana following the CD conventions and State convention. That's 3 states.

Oh ok, thanks. Still pretty cool.

plus if they are our guys' actual bodies, that makes a huge difference, even if initially bound to someone else.

edit argh - I can't find it now, and I was looking at so many states I don't want to say it wrong.

[hueylong]

We won LA as in, we will control the election of delegates to the national convention at the state convention in June.

And those candidates at the national convention will be able to vote for Ron in the first round or?

[hueylong]

Saturday 2 June 2012: The State Convention convenes at 10 am in Shreveport to elect delegates to the Republican National Convention.

18 National Convention district delegates-- 3 from each of the state's 6 Congressional Districts are elected in the Congressional District meetings. The participants at the State Convention alone determine if presidential preference is to be a factor in such choice and, if so, how it is to be applied. These delegates are official designated as uncommitted. [Rule No. 19. (c) and 20. (a)]
20 National Convention At-Large delegates are elected according to the results of the primary. [Rule No. 19. (d) and 20. (b)]
5 National Convention delegates are nominated by the Executive Committee. These delegates are official designated as uncommitted. [Rule No. 19. (e) and 20. (b)]
The 3 party leaders, the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Louisiana's Republican Party, will attend the convention as unpledged delegates by virtue of their position.
