==Republican Party presidential primaries, 2012==
The mainstream media are not projecting many delegates for Ron Paul at the Republic National Convention.  For example, CNN projected 9 for Ron Paul from Minnesota, but he has won 20 of the first 24 delegates assigned in that state. 
There are reports from the ground that claim that Ron Paul has won, or is likely to win, considerably more delegates than these projections indicate.  This table is an attempt to bring together these reports to give a more accurate picture of how many delegates Ron Paul is winning or likely to win.

Note: pink denotes a relatively high level of confidence in the projection, but even these are technically "unpledged" in many cases.
