Wyoming Convention Results (R)

[Daniel Adams]

Will any type of popular vote be recorded? The AP is reporting that Romney is leading the "overall vote" with more than 50%, with Hunter at 21% and Thompson at 17%. Is this the popular vote?

[Erc]

If the AP has some numbers, they're likely correct.

Probably just a straw poll of all of the convention-goers.

[Meeker]

CNN actually just spent airtime calling a winner and reporting results.

They called it for Romney of course.

[Meeker]

Campbell County just selected a Romney delegate.

Good. Anything to give Romney a little more momentum.

[Erc]

Johnson County selected an uncommitted Alternate.

[Josh/Devilman88]

Maybe this will help Romney in NH. I would love to see a Obama vs Romney  race.

[Erc]

The momentum out of this is going to be minimal, at best.  This is Romney's first and last non-Utah win.

And Campbell county's already-noted selection of a Romney delegate clinches Wyoming for Romney (not that it was really in doubt).

Will Dave wait until Jan 22 to add this on Atlas?

If I was Romney, I would make big noise about this win.

[Middle-aged Europe]

If I was Romney, I would make big noise about this win.

"Hello, I'm Mitt Romney and I just defeated Duncan Hunter and Fred Thompson in Wyoming."

[StateBoiler]

OK, so it's well within the realm of possibility that Giuliani goes into Feb. 5th without having won a single delegate (meaning, he'd still be trailing even Duncan Hunter in delegate count).

Per CNN's delegate tracker, Rudy Giuliani has the stated support of an RNC unpledged delegate from Maine.

[Mr. Morden]

Well, it's still an unpledged delegate.  There's still a chance that he goes into Feb. 5th with no pledged delegates.

[Hash]

If I was Romney, I would make big noise about this win.

Do you actually think people would give two sh**ts if he mediatized his win in Wyoming?

[Meeker]

This is the top one or two stories on basically every major news website, and CNN has mentioned it several times. Might be bigger than we expected.

[Flying Dog]

Pro-Romney news media?

A huge win for Romney in Wyoming.

Way to go Mitt.

He will carry this momentum into New Hampshire for next Tuesday.

At least Mitt cared enough to visit the state. 

[Robespierre's Jaw]

YAY! I got it right.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Well, it's still an unpledged delegate.  There's still a chance that he goes into Feb. 5th with no pledged delegates.

Not after he wins Florida!

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Dang - I was 1 delegate off.  I thought he'd get 7 (58%) instead of 8.

Dang - I was 1 delegate off.  I thought he'd get 7 (58%) instead of 8.

I thought he'd get 9 (75%) instead of 8, so same boat.

But nobody (at least nobody who got both Iowas right) got it right, so nobody gets an advantage.
