The Primaries Are Over. The Ron Paul Revolution Continues.
The Primaries Are Over. The Ron Paul Revolution Continues.
By tmartin • June 4, 2008
Presidential candidate Ron Paul continues to gain support among growing numbers of Republicans who are dissatisfied with John McCain’s enthusiasm for “comprehensive” immigration reform, global warming propaganda, endless wars of aggression, and corrupt monetary policies that have brought us skyrocketing inflation and economic decline.
Montana, South Dakota and New Mexico held Republican primaries yesterday, and in a surprisingly strong showing for a candidate the GOP establishment loves to hate and the media continues to ignore, Ron Paul received 22% of the vote in Montana, 17% in South Dakota and 14% in New Mexico.
The primary season may now be over, but the Ron Paul Revolution continues stronger than ever before. If you too are dissatisfied with the way things are going, make your voice heard and join us on July 12 in Washington, D.C. for the Revolution March and on September 1 - 4 in St. Paul/Minneapolis for the Republican National Convention. Ron Paul is counting on our support.

Numbers Don't Add Up
The numbers for New Mexico are obviously wrong. From those numbers, McCain got 81%, Ron Paul 13%, Huckabee 4%, and uncommitted 2%. I haven't looked at the others, but when 86+14 = 100, I knew there was something fishy there. :-)
