Ron Paul has expanded his Maine lead to 48-33 over Romney

The Maine Caucuses take place over a few days. Tomorrow is the last day. There are some vote totals posted here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?authkey=CKT21ZkH&hl=en_US&key=0AjQBwcCtzwG8dEdGUWZjS1FwTW8wTzVyOEJ6dmg4cHc&toomany=true

Paul 280 48%
Romney 192 33%
Santorum 58 10%
Gingrich 54 9%
Other 3 <1%

There are a lot of counties remaining, but it's always good to be on top.

Granted. we are a low population state(1MM+)....but if this is 3rd day totals, tomorrow better be spectacular. I have heard next to nothing about the republican caucus up here and this is Republican territory. 580 people...stunning.

They have two Republican Senators that act more like Democrats. Now they are going to give wacko Ron Paul his first win.

All the movies with Maine in them, pics, etc., show a beautiful state. I even checked into cost of living there, in case I'd be able to retire there. No way...it's uber expensive there, compared to where I live. A pity. I'd love to get a yellow slicker & say things like, "There's a nor'easter comin' in!" But it wouldn't make much sense to do that here in landlocked Dallas, TX.
