Ron Paul left out of GOP Overall Straw Poll results

I think that this is pretty bad. They are going to do everything that they can to not let him win.

here are the latest results:

here are the results from August:

**note: i just noticed that this isn't on the main gop website, but one setup by a group called gopbloggers.org. it may just be a stunt to get us pissed off and start going to their site to complain, thus getting them more traffic.

They already said..

He was winning all the time so they removed his name. Period. End of story!

That's strange.

Funny he was winning on the same site as proved by this article in May:

if you google "GOP straw poll" most of the hits mention Ron Paul.

We all know he's winning most straw polls.

Yes, this is absolutely corrupt!

This party is going in a new direction and the only one's holding it back is the corrupt figure heads.

I think they should step down!!!... So how do we kill them with kindness?

Also. I got an automated

Also. I got an automated call last night asking about who I'd vote for in the republican primary. Options were 1-5 being Rudy, Mitt, Fred, John, and Mike, and 6 for other. I pushed 6. The prompt then told me that by pushing 6 I chose not to bothered by such calls in the future, and the line was cut. Not only was Ron Paul not on the list, they effectively silenced my vote if at some point they do include him and called back. Those polls are such BS its sad.

It could have been one of the other campaigns fishing

Campaigns may be fishing for support. They will then put you on a list of people to call back if you happen to choose the "right" candidate.

Do you know if this was a

Do you know if this was a Rasmussen Poll?

Rasmussen's email is scott@rasmussenreports.com

A vote for Ron Paul is a vote for James Madison.

So corrupt it is surreal

Is this really happening? Someone pinch me I think I am dreaming.
Wow it is just incredible that this corruption is going on.

How can we get the MSM to report on things like this?

Come visit us at our permanent Ron Paul chat room http://www.buzzen.net/chatui.aspx?rm=RonPaul2008

not gonna happen...

MSM wont report on this, they are part of the problem.

How do the scum of society continually win elections??

Here is how I view the caste of society:

1. Patriots
2. Sheeple
3. Bums
4. Politicians

"Truth is treason in the empire of lies." - Ron Paul

Crap

If that is true, it is complete crap! This whole election is a complete eye opener and it is BULL SHIT!!

Then when Ron Paul supporters get upset - they sit there and say "See these Ron Paul fans are all fanatical and looney and into "conspiracy theories"."

This whole thing is a complete SHAM!!

Redouble your efforts people!! They cannot win with these crap games they are playing!! Educate your brethren!!

Just sent a polite email

Please try to be considerate and respectful in any emails that you send. I understand the passion that us RP supporters have but last thing we need is to earn a negative reputation from rudeness or hyper-aggression.

Here is the email I sent:

Subject: Poll Results Statistics Question

Hi,

Can you tell me why Ron Paul is not included in any of the Poll Result Statistics at http://www.gopstrawpolls.com/pollresults.php?

Surely, it would not be anything but an unfortunate mistake that resulted in his ommision as Paul has been reported by many sources as one of the top finishers for most of the straw polls that have be conducted across the country.

Thanks,

A concerned Republican

I love it

I love how they have all these links about the "Corruption" of the democrats and they are worse.. I sent them a nice email.

I think they actually do a disservice to their readers. Let their readers think their candidate is doing well, then Ron Paul takes it all. Ha!

Blowback

Because they cheated they have lost credibility and web traffic (especially from the Ron Paul voters). Because of lost web traffic they don't have as much revenue coming in from their banner ads. They just lost a lot of money for their website/organization, so it's their loss.

I personally wouldn't get

I personally wouldn't get too worked up about it. These people are just showing their true colors and fighting them with emails will get you nowhere. Its far far better to spend that time and energy going out there to find some Republicans that believe in free speech, but have never heard of Ron Paul - they are out there.

This is turing into...

Blatant lies

It's almost funny how frantically Paul's opponents are trying to prevent his presidency.

If they really dont think he can win, why all this?

TIME TO FIRE UP THE EMAIL SPAMBOTS AGAIN LOL

Trolling for web traffic.

Trolling for web traffic. Ignore them.

People around the internet *KNOW* that any mention of RP will generate massive web traffic to any website. Negative or no mention will create even more traffic.
IGNORE them.

Ya, This is a single person

Ya,
This is a single person running the site that got pissed about so many RP'ers emailing him and wont put Ron back in the polls until the mails cease. His loss. Don't give him the traffic.
