Politico falsifying results to push bias against Paul
Submitted by RealistUSMC on Sat, 02/09/2008 - 22:02
As of right now with 16% these numbers are true
Romney has 504 votes with 17% and there are 280 votes for "uncommited" totalling 9%
This is broken down on MSNBC
On Politico they have combined Romney with the uncommitted for 784 votes, placed in "Other". Basically pushing Dr. Paul to last place on their web site.
For what the uncommitted are, there is a box on the ballot the voter has to check to give an OATH that they are Republican or Democrat. Those that go unchecked go uncounted "uncommitted".

You are confusing two different elections
The results from TODAY are CAUCUS results. There are no envelopes or ballots or boxes or checkmarks. You stand around a room and talk about the candidates, then divide up by who you support.
The ENVELOPES have to do with the PRIMARY which is 10 DAYS FROM TODAY.
I don't see
how the failure to mark the outside of the envelope could "confuse" the counters once the ballot is open...It appears to me that once the ballot is pulled from the envelope and you see Billary or Barak Hussein Obama marked, you think they would get a little hint that that ballot belonged to the democrats, at least in name recognition....I'm beginning to believe we have no democratic or republican party; only a HYBRID party...At any rate, we need to let those who voted for RP to go back and make sure they marked that stupid envelope, IF they are permitted to. Otherwise, it would be just the excuse the GOP there would need to claim some other candidate won.

If you don't check the box, your vote doesn't count.
There is a FREAKING story about this on that tv station's web site, the one that was reporting Paul winning by 45% in Spokane. People are forgetting and REFUSING to check the box in protest. THAT is what "uncommitted" is.

Other = Votes not counted toward candidate
It is not Politico's fault Ron did not beat that number YET
Neither did HUCK.
No Conspiracy
Don't use words you don't know the meaning of.
Nobody said conspiracy. I'm pointing out a fact. They are combining tally's to misrepresent what is really going on. It's the same pattern of behavior that website has presented throughout the election process.

Other is just the group of votes not respesenting the candidates
Relax
I love how you people judge motives so easily.
you people?
You mean folks that support Ron Paul? Who are you?
The people who think Politico
purposely had a plan to lump everyone the Non candidate votes into the other category just to make RP look bad.
They devised this plan months ago because they new exactly how many many votes Everyone would get in this caucus.
If you believe that you are a whacko
oh you haven't met Judge Jeff yet, DaveMac?
Yep, Sacremento Jeff loves to sit as judge and call most on dailypaul all kind of names and then accuses others of judging.
Remember the old childhood saying..." don't point your finger at someone b/c there are 4 fingers pointing right back at you"
That saying tells alot about a person....if you call someone a nutjob, a whacko, a truther, a loser, a conspiracy theorist, ...blah,blah,....what does that say about your own personality?

its 3 fingers count them.
.
You post is intrigingly ironic
How is it quick to judge motives? It's a PATTERN.
Every state so far, the democrats have turned in precint votes faster than the republican party. Every state. I challenge you to name one that isn't true for.
Today the Dems have already counted and turned in 30,000 votes for WA precints, they have a larger party. We can't count fewer votes in less time?

RealistUSMC, forget Jeff...he loves to argue and call names
I understand what you posted, and so do most folks on dailypaul....but just the typical nay-sayers that love to throw a wet blanket on all the good news that is reported love to argue and play devils advocate.
Get's old.

So what?
They count the dems faster to screw Ron Paul?
Dems = younger more energized support.= More people to help count.
Simple explanation
Politico is a fascist organization.
They are committed to Hillary's coronation.
"Free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence; it is jealousy and not confidence which prescribes limited constitutions." Thomas Jefferson, Kentucky Resolutions of 1798
Politico is a fraud, I agree
I won't forget the scam they pulled at the last debate.
Not even asking any of the questions that were posted
Politico is just another piece in the rigged/biased election puzzle.
Absolutely.
THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.--Thomas Paine
