The NH GOP had a convention Saturday to get all rah-rah and make decisions about the party platform. They were hoping for at least 400 of the states 725 delegates but only 294 delegates made the event. That is not unusual but there are some who think it is in indicative of waning in enthusiasm.
Take this Ray Buckley Facebook comment for example.
So much for NH Republican “enthusiasm”, less than 25% of the delegates bothered to show up to yesterday’s state convention.
This suggests several things, none of which have anything to do with GOP enthusiasm. First, Ray must feel certain that no one in his party will bother to do the math. You see, there are 725 delegates, and 294 of them showed up, so that equals….just over 40%…not less than 25%. Anyone who repeats this can be lumped into the category of left-wing lemming or blind liberal acolyte.
Second, he might not care whether anyone will bother to do the math. Maybe that makes him arrogant, or perhaps it is a sign of his own desperation, given that all his evil plans appear to be unraveling.
Third, we now know the starting range of the Buckley margin of error (MoE). Based on his math skills, combined with some genetic proclivity (or perhaps ingrained party policy) to just make things up, the current range of potential error is at least 15% plus whatever ‘less’ means in this context.
It also simply reaffirms what most of us already knew– you simply cannot believe a single thing this guy says.
