Um...
That’s because he bought a bunch of tickets and sent his operatives in to vote. We weren’t checking residence at our picnic. Anybody that bought a ticket and showed up could vote, no matter what age they were or what state or country they came from.
If you had polled the Strafford County Republicans, you would have found Fred and Duncan in a slight lead over Mitt with Rudy and Queeg bringing up the rear.
So, where were these fine Republicans you speak of? Blackbird.
Oh yeah. I forgot to add...
Thanks Ron Paul for buying a couple hundred tickets. We needed the money to support real candidates.
Let's assume you're right. What does it show? It shows that though the losers (Huckabee, Romney, etc.) chose to compete, they couldn't attact a measly 200 votes to counter the campaign of those devious Paulite, Rove-type "operative" sent there, presumbly in Robot fashion. Is that what you are really saying? It sounds to me that the other candidates are sore loses e.g, they chose to compete, then lost, and now make excuses
I was there, did the Ron Paul campaign purchase any tickets? I don’t think so, all of the people I know bought their own tickets! I would wager that there were very few, I’d say less than 10, people who weren’t from NH voting in your straw poll.
All of the candidates and their campaigns had the same opportunity to bring their supporters to the picnic, and they either didn’t care enough to or couldn’t muster the support. We brought over 200 of our supporters to your fundraiser, you should be thanking us!
Wow this is not true....he never bought anyone any tickets, not one person, never have and never will. Even if there were 20 people there not from NH, he still would have won..
He didn’t buy anyone tickets at the CNHT poll either.
