I think the fix is in, and Romney-the-RINO will be spouting “we’ve won in Iowa, and New Hampshire, and now ON TO S.Carolina” (where he’ll get his ass handed to him, but will down-play it, since he’s the Chosen One, and nothing will matter anyway at the Convention. This is a scripted Establishment Game (the Primaries), and the State-Run-Media campaign for Romney-the-RINO since 2008 is already working its magic on fools who watch and listen to the “Polls”.
It doesn’t really matter, as no one was elected. It was essentially a straw poll last Tuesday, a “presidential preference poll.”
Delegate selection will occur at a later date.
You can rest assured there will not be 24/7 news coverage and media hype when Iowans elect delegates to the Republican National Convention.
The statewide vote totals were counted with reps from every candidate there watching.
They were in a “secret” location; but not secret to the candidate reps who were there. Iowa was crawling with Occupy types; so this was a prudent thing to do.
Each of the 1,700 precincts however were counted on site and the results phones in or sent electronically. Candidate reps also watched each precinct's counting if they wanted.
There was a 20 vote swing for the Romster in this one precinct.
Santorum said he doesn't care, because he knew of a 20 vote swing the other way.
So lets not get “the fix is in” conspiracy talk started as so many people are always eager to do.
We have heard of just these 2 vote discrepancies in 1,700 precincts. The results are out there for all to see.
Many people will write down the vote totals at their precinct as they are announced.
And they will prob ably do as I did; get on the website and see if they matched. I checked and mine matched.
Damage has been done ... “It is the Headline”
