Thread: Over/under 4% for ron paul's write in votes

Simple question. Do you think Ron Paul will pull over or under 4% of the vote come November. You know a lot of people will be writing him in (including this guy), but just how many is up for debate.

Ron Paul has declared that he is done actively campaigning and in the article it appeared to mean entirely and not just this Primary.
No matter what percentage ron paul pulls...it will mean the same thing its always meant in the end...Hes had the same 10% supporters hes had from day one.

You can still write him in though, even if he isn't actively campaigning.

Sure you can

nader puled in a hefty amount,dont know if it hit 4% but it was enough to make the democtrats fight furiously to maintain the 2 party system.

even if paul doesnt win just him getting votes leaves a message,btw the libertarian party is the only party to ever gain an electoral vote for a female,and is currently the fastest growing party in america.

actually that female who got an electoral vote was the only libertarian to ever get an electoral vote,but lets change that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd have to argue that. There are people stating that Ron Paul is just focusing on getting delegates. (Ron Paul Ends His Campaign? Not Really) See this as well (Ron Paul Has Dropped Out of the Presidential Race … Or Has He?)

In most states write-in votes aren't even counted or considered a legal vote. This is particularly true most places if the candidate does not file to be a write in candidate. So in most of the country, there is no difference between writing in Ron Paul and not voting at all as both are counted the same. No vote cast in presidential race.

Great point. Okay, we will assume Paul files as a write in candidate. What say you?

Definitely would take the under
