Paul campaign urges voters to check sites

The Ron Paul presidential campaign is urging Washoe County Republican voters to check the county party's Web site or call its office to verify their site for Saturday's caucus.

In a Thursday news release, the Paul campaign expressed frustration over problems the Nevada Republican Party has had with its Web site and postcards sent to voters with incorrect caucus locations.

Jeff Greenspan, Ron Paul's Southwest U.S. regional coordinator, said Zac Moyle, the state Republican Party executive director, acknowledged the problem.

"This Web site has been misdirecting voters up to two days before the caucus," Greenspan said in a news release.

"The Ron Paul campaign has received calls from hundreds of supporters who have asked why they are being directed to Reno and Henderson for their caucus sites when they live in Las Vegas. Perhaps the party ought to consider postponing the caucuses until they can ensure that correct caucus information is communicated to all Republican voters in the state," the news release said.

Jennifer Terhune, Nevada communications coordinator for Paul, said the campaign is not planning to file suit to stop the caucus.

She said the news release was issued to help raise awareness of the problem for Paul supporters.

"Our biggest concern and the reason we decided to write the press release and send it out as we did was to try to reach all the Ron Paul supporters that we're not in contact with," she said. "Our biggest concern is people will go to the wrong location and not get a chance to vote and be a delegate. The post cards were wrong. The state Web site was wrong, but the county's was right."

The Washoe County GOP Web site address is www.washoecountygop.org.
