Final result: 32,963.

Turnout was 11% in 2008.  This year it was 8%.

As they demonstrated rather well yesterday and today, the NV GOP is a shambles.  I was far from the only person at yesterday's caucuses who had not received any information - by mail or by phone - about where to go and at what time.  I had to spend a not insignificant amount of time trying to figure it out myself.

The Democrats already have a nominee, and yet they still managed to get 13,000 people to show up and raise their hand for him anyway.  He just opened his fourth campaign office in the state a few days ago.  Mitt Romney has just one.

Nevada may only have six electoral votes, but the GOP are going to have a tough time winning them unless they can get their act together here.

Republicans don't need Nevada for the 270th electoral vote. They need Ohio + NH.

Well hey, if the GOP wants to give up on a swing state that voted for Bush both times, so be it.

"In an odd sense when turnout is down, contrary to what you are hearing, people are satisfied with the winning and the candidate that’s winning. They are satisfied with Mitt Romney."

-- John Sununu Sr., Romney campaign surrogate
