I expect the primary to be called for Romney shortly after polls close. Hopefully turnout is up from 2008.

A) Yes

B) I think so: most likely 2 Mio. to 2,4 Mio. voters

Something else:

PPP doesn't know yet if they'll do NV, MN and CO caucus polls because they "are hard to poll".

The updated Drudge reported Exit Poll has now been altered to:

49% Romney
33% Gingrich
11% Santorum
  6% Paul

Should have sticked with my next-to-last prediction ... Tongue

If it's just early/absentee ballots at the moment, then ARG's 51-29 breakdown among early voters was pretty good ...

If ARG has suddenly become the most accurate pollster, then maybe 2012 is the end of the world.

Mitt's margin is decreasing at least. He's not gonna break 50% tonight, thankfully.

There's still the possibility that the ARG poll will be true: That means Gingrich down by only 10 or so.

Why are 20% of voters Independents or Democrats ? Isn't this a closed primary ?

Turnout seems to be down compared with 2008.

1.9 million compared with about 2 million in 2008

GOP turnout looks like 1.85 million compared with 1.95 million in 2008.

In fact, only SC so far had more turnout than 2008. IA, NH, FL are all down.
