Ron Paul Betting Odds Could be Impacted by New Voting Rules
Voting Rules Changed at Last Minute Will Shut out Votes for 2008 US Presidential candidate Ron Paul, according to Gambling911.com Special Contributor Jennifer Reynolds. Ms. Reynolds regularly reports on the Ron Paul campaign for the Gambling911.com website. Dr. Paul, as many of you already know, is opposed to the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) and there are many in the online gambling space who would love to see him get elected into office next year.
But it turns out his own party is going to make this an even more difficult task.
"Many states, in an effort to shut out Ron Paul are now closing their primaries," reports Reynolds. "That means that only Republicans can vote in the Presidential primaries for a Republican candidate."
And this could have a tremendous impact on Ron Paul betting odds, though probably not in the next few weeks. Ron Paul odds were slashed to 6 to 1 over this past weekend, making him a bigger favorite than Mitt Romney.

HAHAHAHAHA
Rue Paul’s solid Republican base have to go out and switch registration to be Republican.
Too funny. Bunch of whack-a-doodle moonbats. Like we are stupid and did not know this all along.
The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 (H.R. 4411, Leach-Goodlatte) was passed by the House, the Senate and signed by the President on October 13, 2006.
But as usual, Ron Paul supporters never obey a law they don't agree with.
As it should be.
Why is Ron Paul, a libertarian, running for the Republican nomination? Aren’t you suppose to run as the leader of your party then in the general election run against the other?
Sounds like Cult-of-Ron-Paul paranoia to me.
He's just not that important.
Yeah, but that won’t stop all those “soldiers” in foxholes from sending in $10.00 in between ducking mortar rounds (or is that 20-year-olds in their mom’s basement using her credit card while playing Matrix online?). Doesn’t matter, just so they check off “military.” Ron Paul’s supporters will believe them.
I would like to see the Paulestinians back this claim up with some facts.
Imagine the nerve! Having to register as Republican to vote in the Republican primary for a Republican candidate! Outrageous!
What pure BS.
How dare you question the writer of the Constitution and the only person in the world who has ever read it?
No, it's not. Go read the bill again.
Funding internet gambling from certain sources is illegal.
I’ve read it.
I am also registered independent and can not vote in primaries in Pynnsylvania where I live. It is up to politcal party members to select who they want to represent their party. That's the way it should be. If you want to vote, register for a party.
How is it BS? Want to pick a party nominee? Join the party then. You don’t get to pick the president of the Elks club without being an Elk.
spam
Yep, it's all about the Narcissism Campaign.. they want to close out Mr. 1%-4%.. There is nothing new about closed primaries.. the greenies have been complaining about it for years..
RonPaul supporters are waiting for that Soros check from media matters.
