There is no official count because many of even the delegates that have been 'awarded' so far aren't actually bound to vote for the person they were awarded to. All we have are ballpark numbers that can shift a lot. If you actually go back and check the amount of delegates that Mitt Romney will get at the convention you will be amazed at what a huge proportion he gets even in the first round of voting despite this being a 'close' primary.
Go back and read what I posted about the Denver caucus.
You're right, they can shift, but everyone knows that it isn't going to be the Paul delegates doing the shifting. If there's one thing that can't be denied about Paul supporters, it's how adamant they are about supporting him.
Actually Paul Won The popular vote . Romney got more delegates . In the State of Maine Paul won the delegates but not the caucus vote according to MSN. See how it works Paul Wins Vote so is second because less delagates . So Romney announced winner. But If Paul wins delegates . Than the Caucus vote determines winner .
Exactly. Of course, people on this forum don't want to acknowledge this, they just turn to "uhhh......... Ron Paul will never win!!!"
Yet every scientifically conducted poll mirrors the elections (not including internet polls where Paul supporters click "vote" repeatedly.)
When is the last time you've seen a poll that still allows repeated submissions from the same IP? I can't remember the last time I've seen one, and I've never seen a single political poll that allows it.
Also, I just noticed they COMPLETELY changed the VI GOP Caucus Results page. So before you start condemning Paul supporters for being unable to read, maybe you should have read it earlier. Not a single thing is the same on that page as it was yesterday. It previously had no mentions of any of the things you're referring to until now. So, obviously, it has nothing to do with not being able to read.
ALTHOUGH DR. PAUL RECEIVED ONLY ONE DELEGATE, HIS TEAM RECEIVED UP TO THREE ALTERNATE DELEGATE SLOTS AND WILL BE WELL REPRESENTED IN OUR SMALL DELEGATION.
At least there's that.
It is a bit strange, if these were actually votes for delegates - then the fact that Paul had more votes means he had more votes towards his delegates. The only reason Romney has more in the top 6 is because Paul supporters spread there votes out among a wider number of delegates. Not that that's anyones fault but their own. They should have voted for only 3-4 Paul delegates then he would have won the top 6.
Still, it should be acknowledged, and somewhat, it has, by the alternative delegate count that Paul received more votes in his name than Romney.

Romney received 7 delegates, to Ron Paul's 1. However, Paul received 112 votes, to Romney's 101.
No idea where they're getting 7 from.. Romney has 4 delegates in top 6, & 4 including alternatives as well. Paul has 1 in top 6, and 6 including alternatives.
