Eyewitness samples

delegates named on this list should be posted anonymous!! Names being revealed on here, do you think they are going to vote them through to the county and state level. Please remove your names.

My name is Bob Tracey. I post here as bobspirit. I got access to the campaign votertracker system in November, and that is when I started walking my precinct.

Out of the hundreds of registered republicans in my precinct, 16 showed up. 12 went for Paul, 2 for Santorum, 2 for Romney, and 1 for Gingrich. 5 delegates, all for Paul. Here are my observations and perceptions.

First and foremost, this is winnable. But it can only happen face to face, one heart and mind at a time. I learned this walking my precinct and talking to people. Phone calls, mailing, and e-mails are poor substitutes for a live human being.

31 precincts were gathered at Silverado high school, and a volunteer was needed for each to act as a caucus chair and run the meeting in which delegates were chosen, and the presidential poll taken. As we only has 10 volunteers, someone had to figure out who was going to chair all of these precincts. I took it upon myself to go into the other 21 precinct meetings and recruit a volunteer to chair, and a volunteer to assist, and then gave them a crash course on how to chair the meting, which was fun since I hadn't even done my own yet.

I began each meeting the same way. I expressed gratitude to every American who bothered to get up early on a chilly Saturday morning and show up to contribute to the change in leadership we seek. I stressed our unity as AMERICANS, not as republicans.

Do I think you have be pretty much brain dead to vote for anyone other than Paul, hell yes I do, and I have the equivalent of a doctorate in economics to prove it, but guess what? What you resist, persists, and you don't win over hearts and minds with anything other than love.

I handled my meeting pretty easily, and then went back to the cafeteria where everything was being tabulated.

I observed and assisted in collecting sealed envelopes with indiviual ballots inside them for all 31 precincts. Another Paul supported there took a picture of each one. While I did not total them, I am fast with numbers. it was clear Romney was ahead, and Santorum and Gingrich all zeroes and single digits. Clearly, from what I saw, Paul was going to take second. Lots of mormons here, and they were organized and plentiful, but few were willing to go the extra mile to be a delegate ($40 bucks please!). Paul will get a proportion of delegates far exceeding the actual votes.

I do not know how the vote count was swung over to Gingrich, but I do know the clark county party chair, Dave Gibbs, is an ardent Gingrich supporter. However it was done, we got beat, so I support the campaign decision to move on.

So what did I learn? I learned the people who we perceive to be our adversaries are also our countrymen, and it is only through unity with our countrymen that liberty will be restored.

We Paul supportes understand the nature of our debt slavery, but even the average politically active republican and democrat have no idea that they were born into a system of modern feudalism. They simply do not know.

They are not the enemy. Ignorance and fear are the enemy.

For if they did know, what would they do? They would join us, wouldn't they?

The bankers have ruled over civilization now since 1693, over 300 years. It is a monetary system based in fear, fear that there is not enough so I must have more, and it is coming to it's unaviodable demise.

It is dying because it is man's nature to love, yet every day life presents us with the choice between fear and love. Every moment contains this choice, and we cannot avoid it.

If liberty will prevail, it is because we chose love.

This battle cannot be lost. It isn't possible. Yet along the way we are going to run into hardened GOP operatives, people in this system far longer than we, who will want to cling to the illusion of their power. They beleive to have power, they must take it from you. We know better.

We know liberty for all spreads and multiplies power, so that there is more than enough to go around.

So it isn't enough to show up. We must deal with our own fears so that THE REAL US shows up. The ones tapped into the divine source of power that lives in each of us.

Ghandi taught us that we must be the change we wish to see in the world. So ask yourself, how can I serve myself, my family, and my country, with love. Act on that answer.

If we show up with the power of love, what can stand against that? Look at our leader. He teaches us that every day. Are we not listening?

Me, I'm going to go find Dave Gibbs this week and see if he needs any help. Jeez, he supports Gingrich, I figure he's freaking desperate, lol.

So let's skip the troll fears, everyone who visits is our countrymen, and lets do what we need to do to manage OUR fears so we can help the poor schmucks who really believe IRAN is our most dangerous enemy, and not the SOBS that are printing our money.

Anyone wants to write to me, I am at bobspirit56@gmail.com.

Love to all my countrymen and women.

Peace out from Las Vegas.

not reading all the wonderful posts below, i read about half.

i desperately need help in finding how to post an excel spreadsheet of the clark county votes.

this is excellent work you did and i'm adding it to the spreadsheet as VERIFIED on the individual precincts. if anyone wants a copy please let me know

Because the establishment says so! Just ask Brian Middleton....

(Satire)

It sure looks like Ron Paul came in second in Nevada, from your research.

And doesn't it seem very strange that Rick Sanitarium went from a distant 4th place, to 1st place in the three events held yesterday, the 7th of Feb. ???

By the way, have you completed the "Paul Care" research paper yet? I'd really like to get a copy.

My question would be why are there only ≈ 1800 yet there are precinct numbers in the 7600+ range?

Are they simply not reporting results from 5900+ precincts?

Or is there some weird numbering scheme. 7600 does sound like a large number for a small state.

1. Trust it or not, the media does exit polling, so even though there may only be a small percentage reporting, the news outlets can compare that to their entry or exit polling and decide how accurate it is and then ball park what the results of unreported precincts could be. And if you have a double digit lead, it's easy to call. Compare it to (and you can agree or disagree with the results, I'm not arguing that)Nevada where all night they talked about the race for 2nd was too close to call.

2. I would expect that precincts that favored Paul would show up on some message board more often than ones that didn't. Obviously most of us are die hard. That means we're going to drag a few friends with us, blanket our neighborhood, give an impassioned speech and run straight home and post our results. I assume many of the precincts that have not been and may never be posted have totals on average less favorable for RP than the statistics that you are reporting.
