in last in the LA primary?
Please take the time today to tell at least one friend about Dr. Paul, his message, why you support him, and why our country needs him now more than ever. This is a grassroots campaign. We are the grass and we are the roots. The other candidates may have more money, but Dr. Paul has something that no amount of money can buy: He has us. He has our trust, our belief, our support and our love. Let us not let Dr. Paul, nor our country down.

No, it's not evil voting machines. Ron Paul did well in the LA caucus (and every caucus) because it takes more effort to be involved in a caucus than it does to vote in a primary. As such, only dedicated politicos attend caucuses. Ron Paul is on par with the other candidates when it comes to having a dedicated base, so he performs well in caucuses. But Paul is not on par with the other candidates when it comes to general population voters - the people who care little about the race (just enough to vote in it). So when it's primary day, these voters push Paul to the back of the pack.
That's why Paul did well in the LA caucus and horrible in the LA primary.
what does it all mean?
How do the primary and caucus affect the delegate count.
I have the same question

Probably just a mistake or something.
doesn't RP have
a legal challenge already against LA for not counting the provisional ballots or something like that???
The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. James Madison

I was wondering the same thing
What is the purpose of the caucus and the primary?
Caucus measures DEPTH of support, primary measures BREADTH
A caucus finds out how PASSIONATE a small group of people are about a candidate. A primary finds out how MANY people are interested in a candidate.
I don't know about LA but in
I don't know about LA but in WA for example:
"The state also has a presidential primary, conducted mostly via mail, on Feb. 19. Republicans will use results to elect half of their national delegates, but Democrats view the primary as a
nonbinding popularity contest and won't use it to allocate delegates."
