McCain 1205
Romney 255
Huckabee 247

It’s all about who is counting the votes.

Most people count the votes of delegates who were CHOSEN by the candidates, even when those delegates were not specifically required by law to vote a certain way.

And most people count the votes of delegates who indicated firm support for a candidate, even if they were not compelled by law to vote for the candidate.

None of it matters now. Unless you expect us all to rally around Ron Paul to stop McCain, he will earn virtually all the pledged delegates from here on out.

True. Though I would not be surprised to see Huckabee pick up some more, especially in Mississippi.

Plus in addition, many of these Romney delegates were won in states, no one but Ron Paul contested seriously.

2012 will be Huckabee v. Romney. Grab a chair, it’s going to be interesting.
