Looking like a decent haul for Ron Paul. Should get a few delegates unless they conspire to shut us out, although after today's fiasco I'm sure at the next levels of the caucus they'll just want to get it over with and won't bother.

Obviously caucuses have different turnouts than primaries, but wow. Santorum got 55% in the primary, while Paul only got 12%.
The thing is though that this is a caucus, which favours Paul, it has received very little media attention, which favours Paul, and Paul didn't try in the primary, because he had Minnesota to focus on.

Santorum's lack of organisation is KILLING him.

Any news organisations counting the delegates from this contest?

Got a map update? Any chance we could get these results posted on the main website?

Will they rehold the St. Charles caucus?

EDIT: Just saw on wikipedia that it's due for April 10. Will there be more shenanigans at the caucus or will they just try and get it finished?

Are all of the Anti Santorum areas in or is it hard to tell because of the Romney-Paul alliance?

Impossible to say for sure. I'm sure St. Charles County when it votes will be strong for Paul. The other areas should mostly, though certainly not entirely, Santorum.

Yeah, I think that most of the other counties have so little at stake and so few people it's hard for the not-Santorum's to organise anything to get some delegates off him.
