GOP Officials: Santorum Finished Ahead in Iowa After All

New Final Count Shows Santorum Won Iowa Caucuses

Rick Santorum (AP)

COLUMBIA, S.C. (The Blaze/AP) — Republican officials say the final count of the Iowa caucuses puts Rick Santorum ahead of Mitt Romney by 34 votes, but no winner will be declared because votes from eight precincts are missing.

Romney, the front-runner in the race for the GOP presidential nomination, initially had been considered the winner by 8 votes in the event’s closest finish ever.

Iowa Republicans are to announce the tally Thursday morning.

Republican officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to pre-empt the announcement, said Santorum would end up with 29,839 votes to Romney’s 29,805.

Foxnews.com has more:

“It’s a split decision,” the executive director of the Iowa GOP Chad Olsen said.

Officials discovered inaccuracies in 131 precincts, with changes in one precinct alone shifting the vote by 50.

Even before the new results were officially announced, Mitt Romney released a statement.

“The results from Iowa caucus night revealed a virtual tie. I would like to thank the Iowa Republican Party for their careful attention to the caucus process, and we once again recognize Rick Santorum for his strong performance in the state,” he said. “The Iowa caucuses, with record turnout, were a great start to defeating President Obama in Iowa and elsewhere in the general election.”

      “Votes from eight precincts are missing.“ ”Inaccuracies.” And, Romney grandstanding an eight vote lead “EVEN BEFORE the new results were officially announced.”

      Sounds Like Fraud To Me!

      And, BECAUSE Romney was declaring a “win” before the official announcement; Romney KNEW The Votes Had Been Tampered With To Show Him Ahead.

      Santorum won Iowa (how did Newt do, again?) and Santorum got 9.4% of the vote in New Hampshire (how did Newt do? Oh, that’s right — 9.4% of the vote). In national polls, Santorum‘s positive rating is in the 30’s and his negatives are in the 30′s. Newt‘s positives are in the 30’s and his negatives are in the 50′s. Now, we a learning more of what a lecherous creep Newt is. And Perry endorses Newt? Well, we always new that Perry was never the shaprest tool in the shed. He flunks (two times) a required course for his preferred major in college. His latest move gets an “F” as well.

I thought the Blaze was a conservative, constitutionalist, upright website, bringing the truth to conservatives. I guess they are no better /worse than the MSM, I guess if the “party” does not want Santorum, and the media does not want Santorum, then it does not matter that he outshines all the others in true conservatism and adhering to the constitution, I guess actually winning in Iowa – the pace setter of the caucuses, the tone setter. Then he is unimportant to them!! That this is now called a virtual tie, what a crock of deception, and lies. This is VERY Important. Very Important. And yet we all lie down and accept this! What a bunch of patsy‘s and *****’s we are. I came to america and became a citizen because of the constitution, because of the founding fathers, becuase of the war of independance, because of the assumed values still upheld by the people. Well I guess I have to move now, as this place is no better than a third world african pauper nation, (o you dont think so, lets talk in 20 years), standing only on the borrowings of lender nations and central banks, that will come and extract their collatoral.

      This proves that the Elites are as always doing their DIRTY Business everywhere.
      They have selected in order: Romney, Newt, Perry then Huntsman. Romney is their main guy!!! This proves it all. I have done my homework and intensely researched them all.
      The Elites do not want Santorum or Paul. Which means they are who we need to vote for.

      We stayed up late to watch the Iowa voting. There was no question to us that things were being lost at that time. The Media is our tell all. They were panicking that Santorum was winning over Romney.
      How obvious was their distortion of the truth, for the end result!!!! They jumped in and declared Romney as the winner, first thing in the morning News with an 8 vote lead. Now Santorum has a certified 34 vote lead and it is declared a tie??To top it off, 8 precincts have gone missing??This is proof to me that the powers to be (The self appointed elites, with UN and NWO alliances) are the cheaters and controllers with no intent for a true vote. Without a voting process that is trust worthy then we know Obama will win. All of this means nothing and we are being led down the gates of HELL. Proof that Newt and Romney are big Government is over whelming, Perry is dropping and Huntsman where back up.
      That only leaves our only chances to Restore this Country are Santorum or Paul. The rest have been presented to us and they don’t intend to loose. They will cheat and commit fraud. Don’t use those machines to vote. Only written form to vote.

      Inconsititencies create chaos and where there is chaos there is profit….the “process” is this way so the door is open for operatives!!! It’s like the old west and poker you were EXPECTED to cheat but you better not get caught!!!!

      When I participated in the 2008 Caucus – it was not even voting. Not one person checked to see if I was even registered. It is a waste of time to have the caucus – they need to switch to a primary vote and be done with it. Voting by raised hands and shuffling people around in groups is senseless enough and that influence bleeds over to the counting.
      I am more concerned with the buses that were brought in from Chicago to beat Hillary and how easily manipulated it is versus plain outright voting.

      RONMEYPAULBOTSRODD You are talking about the democrat caucus, not the republican caucus. At the republican caucus, there are actual ballots and you would have had to show your ID to get a ballot. Obviously there is room for improvement in the process. I have no doubt that the counting of the votes at the precinct was accurate and honest. A representative from each candidate can watch the ballot counting. The problem is the process used to report it to the state GOP office. Phoning the count in and relying on someone not to make an error entering it on the other side make it too easy for someone to make a typo or other error.

    Don‘t tell me the Republican elite aren’t in the bag for Romney. They successfully robbed Santorum of a lot of momentum despite having won in Iowa.

    Who REALLY won Iowa?
    …Now we are being told that the Iowa results “don’t matter.” They matter, regardless of any rent-an-expert who shows up in the press. Misreported results manipulated the candidate field from which the rest of America can choose.
    The Des Moines Register is now reporting an even greater malfeasance: that the final, certified Iowa result may “never be known.” There were several typos, they say. Some precincts will never be reported, they claim.
    That we got a heads up at all about bogus media results was due to an alert Iowa citizen, Edward True, who captured evidence of the 20-vote misreport in his Appanoose County precinct. That people like Edward True were stationed all over Iowa capturing results before they hit the state Republican Committee tabulation was due to Black Box Voting, where the need to do this was explained, and to radio hosts and sites like Bradblog and Facebook, where the word went out.
    Mainstream media then began its next act of theatre: They started spinning the false result that THEY THEMSELVES announced as — instead of their own foolishness — “making Iowa look foolish”…

      Romney did “finagle this one” just fine. Look at the momentum he stole from Santorum.
