Turnout far exceeds organizers’ plans for 300*as more than triple attend in spite of chilly weather
FALMOUTH, Maine*–*2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul drew a crowd of 1,000 supporters in Freeport, Maine today, demonstrating his popularity among voters in the crucial Pine Tree State.* The crowd gathered expressly for the 12-term Congressman from Texas as he spoke from the balcony of Linda Bean’s Maine Kitchen & Topside Tavern at 1:30 p.m. EST.
Most notably, the crowd left the comfort of their homes, braving near-freezing temperatures to hear Dr. Paul’s message.* This contrasts with less inspiring candidates*struggling with diminished interest*including crowd size in balmy Florida.* Event organizers noted that Dr. Paul touted provisions of his path-breaking ‘Plan to Restore America’ and conversed supporters and undecided Maine voters.

Ron Paul surveys the huge rally attendance as he begins speaking.
