Right...testimonial of the Belfast chairman isn't enough.
I guess its fine to chalk it up to complete incompetence when its CONVENIENT because Ron Paul stands the best chance of beating Obama and it scares you.
Human error, miscalculation, bad judgement leads to missing reports?
Human error leads to postponing caucuses due to 1-3 inches of snow? You think Mainers aren't prepared for an inch of snow?
Must've been that bad judgement that resulted in MISSING RESULTS, do I even have to re-post the results chart?
Ohhh right, must've been miscalculation to ADD SEVERAL caucuses the day before the big vote..one of the locations being a senior retirement area bordering MASSACHUSETTS (Romney's governing state).
Yea..must be that incompetence...darn incompetence.
See no evil, hear no evil.
Why do you ignore that the unreported precincts only give Ron Paul a net gain of 6 votes on Romney. It's not the huge conspiracy you are trying to make it out to be.

Could you provide the link or source where that was said?
Well...these unreported caucuses wouldn't have helped Paul much.
Take the county results: waldo.villagesoup.com...
subtract out the already reported tows from the official count: www.mainegop.com...
And you get:
Gingrich - 18
Paul - 35
Romney - 29
Santorum - 39
So Paul lost to Santorum in the unreported caucuses...and had a net gain of 6 votes on Romney. Looks like you uncovered the huge conspiracy that is keeping Paul from the nomination.
All the information is available for you to do this...I did it in a previous post...I'll paste that same analysis here. When people are talking about "missing precincts"...they are talking about Waldo county...that is the ONLY confirmed missing precincts in the final tally.
But the number did not include results from the Washington County caucus, which was postponed until this Saturday because of a snowstorm.
In addition, the vote totals from several communities, including Waterville and much of Waldo County, were left out of the official count because of clerical or computer errors. Some other community vote totals were entered incorrectly.

Thanks, OKS, you have single handidly unravelled the disinformation by the Paul campaign to claim there is a conspiracy against them. I'm not sure how you figured it out, but good job.

The Paul campaign makes no claim of conspiracy or fraud...not even they are that silly.
So either there is no conspiracy that Paul sees...or he just isn't as honest as all of you thinks he is.

I don't marginalize Paul...it's just that I comment on his realistic chances and his actual popularity. When you compare that to the fantasies that his supporters have of him...it appears that I am marginalizing him.
Numbers don't lie...he just doesn't have the support you and others thinks he does.
