Put CNN on. They only mentioned it for a minute in their little update segment. MSNBC is running one of those stupid specials. I guess this isn't going to get much coverage no matter how it turns out.

Oh well, Tuesday should be different.

Why would Mittens win Lane County, some rural county with nobody in it?

Apparently Romney has not sent anyone to speak for him in Wichita, which is not going over well...

lol, more subtle racism.
He has a point. Romney cares more about some island a million miles away than the conservative heartland.

Wait what. So if only Santorum is over 20% then everyone gets delegates? What kind of bullsh*t is this?!

That's absolutely right, I didn't catch that earlier. "In the event that a single candidate or no candidate receives in excess of 20% of the certified statewide vote total then the sections pertaining to that requirement shall be null and void and the allocation determined from the results of the entire pool of statewide candidates."

So Santorum actually wants Gingrich to break 20%, lol.  That's screwed up.

Damn I misread the rules. So if the results were as they are now at large Paul would get 2, Gingrich/Romney 5 each and Santorum 28. So should Santorum actually be hoping Romney gets over 20%?

It's also really stupid, because a large part of the point of thresholds is to prevent Lyndon LaRouche or equivalent from winning delegates in years when there's only an incumbent.

Ideally, Gingrich would get 20.01%.

Yeah, Gingrich is doing a lot worse there and Santorum is making it up.

Gingrich will probably fall behind Romney very soon. Oh well.

Goddamnit, Santorum is going to do so well that he makes it completely proportional. Republican delegate allocation is so completely stupid and nonsensical.

Delegate allocation, as it currently stands:

Santorum - 29
Romney - 5
Gingrich - 5
Paul - 1

How this can change...

Assuming everyone stays below 20% but Santorum:

Santorum gains a delegate if he breaks 56%, loses a delegate if he drops below 52%
Romney/Gingrich lose a delegate if they drop below 16%.

All changes are at the expense / to the benefit of Paul.

If Gingrich or Romney breaks 20%:

It would be approximately:

Santorum - 34
Gingrich/Romney - 6

Romney will get 20%. Johnson and Sedgwick, the two biggest counties in the state are still out and they should be a little better for him.

Wow, the Gingrich-Romney battle for second has been pretty epic. Romney took the lead but Gingrich just took it back.
