Louisiana GOP: Ron Paul stands 2nd
Thursday, January 24th, 2008
The Louisiana Republican Party says the state’s preliminary results indicate that presidential hopeful Ron Paul has come in second. Louisiana Republican Party Chairman Roger Villere said Wednesday in a statement that Senator John McCain has captured the first place and Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney finished third. Party officials are reportedly verifying provisional ballots for newly registered voters, which may boost Paul’s numbers since most of them support his candidacy. “I applaud the supporters of Congressman Paul for their enthusiasm and superior organizational ability,” Villere said. While the 72-year-old Air Force veteran has yet to win a primary, the Louisiana result is yet another indication that Paul’s ‘message of freedom’ in line with the Constitution is being heard by voters across the United States. Political pundits believe while the Louisiana contest is not a major battleground for the Republicans, Paul’s second place finish will further boost the anti-war politician’s campaign. Because the mainstream media keeps a low profile on the popular libertarian-leaning Texan, this is considered a great victory for the 10-term congressman’s supporters.
