MT @
BYUfan
: @
abulsme
I looked up Stephen Brediger. You had him as unknown. He's a Romney. So, results for LD44 were R 26, S 7, G 5, P 1.
#
@
BYUfan
Thanks for the info on that delegate! He gave no speech, so I couldn't classify him.
#
@
BYUfan
Just now I realized I said Tepublican instead of Republican as I wrapped up my live tweeting. I was very tired by then. :-)
#
Reading – Superdelegate chaos in MA (MAtt, DCW)
http://t.co/AVDHGc1l
#
@
candygirl777
The rules make it hard 4 minority candidates to get delegates. Paul got more than I expected in 44th. And he only got 1. :-)
#
@
candygirl777
What kind of shenanigans did you see?
#
@
BYUfan
I knew I could undervote. Didn't want to. :-). Thanks for reading it all. Looking back, that was quite a few tweets. :-)
#
@
BYUfan
Q: Why didn't nonRomneys motion in morning to change rules to simply allocate dels proportionately to straw poll results in each LD?
#
@
BYUfan
It worked in some counties in MO. Convention passed motion, done in much less than 16 hours. Obv Romney would oppose, but worth try?
#
@
BYUfan
2/3 might be possible. Arguments to make: 1) Fair and democratic. 2) You'll be outta here in 30 minutes instead of many hours. :-)
#
@
BYUfan
Some counties in MO did do this, but not sure the initial mix of candidate support there.
#
@
BYUfan
Would also still have to determine the way to pick actual delegates within that allocation though.
#
@
BYUfan
Cool. That kind of motion much less likely to succeed at state than county though. More dedicated folks, probably more discipline.
#
@
BYUfan
Less prone 2 vote for something because it is more fair (esp if it would hurt their cand) or because it will get them home faster.
#
@
BYUfan
Maybe 2016 county convention, or even in the committee drafting the proposed rules before things even start.
#
@
BYUfan
Best time for that kind of rule change actually before precinct caucuses, so nobody knows yet where their candidate will stand.
#
@
BYUfan
But not sure how early the convention rule making process starts.
#
@
BYUfan
Hmm. Interesting. So such a change would have to be made at state level not county in WA? County conv can't override state rules?
#
@
BYUfan
Of course could also push to switch from caucus to primary. Talking future years obviously.

Good! They are still counting ours. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
I voted Open Convention Slate. Based on speeches: 21 Paul, 15 Santorum, 1 Romney, 1 Gingrich. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
The Romney was the guy now kicked off slate if there are more rounds. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
This has now been going eight hours. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Romney and Santorum delegates have had meetings in hall. The Paul delegates have not yet. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Someone just said that 2nd largest LD in county is now on 3rd ballot. We are the largest, still waiting on our 1st. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
If the Romney people are disciplined they would all vote for each other and we would be done after one ballot. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
That would result in 100% Romney delegates to the next level. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Would actually require a few undecideds from the first level to vote Romney slate. But that should be easy, right? #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Getting tired. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Make that: I voted Open Convention Slate: 21 Paul, 15 Santorum, 1 Romney, 1 Gingrich, 1 undeclared. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Have results! #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
6 candidates elected. 31 eliminated. 33 more spots to fill. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Voting for second ballot starting now. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
I was not eliminated yet. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
2nd round voted slate except me first. (I was knocked off bottom of slate with only 33 left to vote for.) #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
That makes my 2nd ballot: 19 Paul, 13 Santorum, 1 Gingrich. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
While waiting for count on 2nd ballot doing some counting. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Of 152 who ran for next level based on speeches: #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
65 Romney, 29 Paul, 25 Santorum, 23 No Speech, 7 Gingrich, 3 no preference stated. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
6 delegates elected in 1st round all Romney. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Of the 31 ballot lines eliminated on the 1st round: #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
19 did not give speeches, 5 had unnominated themselves before first vote, 4 were eliminated lines, 2 were Romney. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Lesson, if you want to go to next level, make a speech. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
19 of 23 people who made no speech were eliminated in the first round. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Did I mention we are down to 297 people caucusing. Some people left and did not have alternates to replace them. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Under 50% batt again. Have laptop to plug into if I get low before it is done. Which I almost certainly will. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
In 2nd round cands still on ballot: 57 Romney, 29 Paul, 25 Santorum, 7 Gingrich, 4 no speech, 2 no stated pref. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
@
Mark_Hombre
39. Six for Romney already chosen. 33 slots to vote for on 2nd ballot. Waiting for results now. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Likely result at end of this 39 Romney delegates. Just question of which people. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
The way rules work plus the near Romney majority will make it hard for others to squeeze in. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Depends on Romney dels discipline to stick with slate though. Only 6 on 1st ballot indicates discipline not tight. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
2nd round 11 more del selected. 9 Romney, 1 Santorum, 1 Paul. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
I was eliminated. :-(. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
54 eliminated. 22 to vote for in 3rd round. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Avuncular of people reported as elongated who had been elected or previously eliminated. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Ouch autocorrect! #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
A bunch of people who had already been eliminated or elected were reported as eliminated again. :-/. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Because some people voted for them again anyway. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Voted straight open convention slate for 3rd round. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
So my 22 votes were: 12 Paul, 9 Santorum, 1 Gingrich. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Waiting for 3rd ballot to be counted now. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Total dels so far: 15 Romney, 1 Santorum, 1 Paul. 22 left to select. #
wacaucus

. Romney max now 37 since 2 non-Romneys now elected. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
In 3rd round avail cands: 18 Paul, 17 Sant, 14 Romn, 6 Ging, 2 no speech, 1 no pref stated #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
On that 1 no pref, they may have said and I just missed hearing it. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

Ron Paul people now meeting in hall. #
wacaucus

Oh! They ordered food for the Paulites! Go Ron Paul! #

I took water, cashews and a cookie. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Ah! Food from Republican Women's Group. Not Ron Paul. Food for everybody! #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Actually, max Romney may only be 29. Current 15 plus 14 Romney dels left on ballot. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

Poor Romney team discipline. Lots of Romney's eliminated by spreading vote too thin. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Batt hit 20%. Now charging from computer. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
In 2nd round 53 eliminated. 33 Romney, 10 Paul, 2 no speech, 1 Gingrich, 1 no pref. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
33 Romney dels eliminated shouldn't have happened if Romney team coordinated and disciplined. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

I've been here over 11 hours now. :-/. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

Unconfirmed report of shenanigans from guy sitting next to me. #

#snocorc #
ld44
#
He says in other LDs Romney people "infiltrated" Open Caucus Slate by misrepresenting as Paul supporters. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Then Non-Romney supporters voted them in because they were on the slate. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
I have no way to confirm or deny. Have my doubts. Just reporting the rumor. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
3rd ballot results! #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
In 3rd round 8 more del elected. 30 eliminated. 28 cand left for 14 spots. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Top 14 win now. 4th ballot is final ballot. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
On 4th went as far as I could on open comb slate. Then filled with Gingrich. Then Santo. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
So my 14 were: 6 Santo, 4 Ging, 4 Paul. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Last 28 cand: 9 Sant, 6 Rom, 6 Ging, 4 Paul, 2 no speech, 1 whose pref I didn't catch (or didn't say). #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
The chair said there were lots of spoiled ballots on the 3rd ballot. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
8 new dels on 3rd ballot were: 7 Romney, 1 Gingrich. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Makes total so far: 22 Romney, 1 Santorum, 1 Gingrich, 1 Paul. 14 to go. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

#
Motion to change rules to elect alternates with plurality, even though could lead to challenge. #

Motion fails. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Asked someone else the pref of the 1 person I had left as no pref. he said he had him as a Romney. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

#
So actual left for 4th round of voting: 9 Santo, 7 Romney, 6 Ging, 4 Paul, 2 no speech. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

Starting process of figuring out who wants to run for alternate while waiting for 4th ballot results. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

#
@
usernamenuse
Yup, not enough left on open conv slate to fill vote either. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
They just finished asking one by one everybody not elected so far if they want to run for alternate. I said yes. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Have results for 4th. Had for awhile but busy with alt stuff. Will report soon. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Voting alternates now. 39. Using slate except me first. :-) #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Was hard to find 39 for the alternate ballot. I was one of the last to turn in. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Final 14 dels were: 6 Santorum, 4 Gingrich, 3 Romney, 1 no speech. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
So total dels from LD 44 to state: 25 Romney, 7 Santorum, 5 Gingrich, 1 Paul, 1 no speech. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #
ld44
#
Now waiting for 1st round of alternate voting. There may be 2. #
wacaucus
#snocorc #

My 39 votes for alt. First slate, then fill with non-Romneys. 21 Paul, 11 Santorum, 6 no speech, 1 Gingrich. #
