official Nevada Republican results thread

[Sam Spade]

I like how Romney wins 28% of those who said the most important candidate quality is "Says what he believes".

Probably the Mormons...

Get this straight, once and for all, Romney is  Mormon, but he is not a Mormon candidate.

He is a serious contender for President.

He is a Presidential candidate.

It's like Obama, he is black, but he is not a black candidate.  He is a Presidential candidate.

It's like Clinton, she is a woman, but she is not a a woman candidate, she is a Presidential candidate.  

Romney gets 95% of Mormon votes. What percentage of Black votes does Obama get? What percentage of woman votes does Clinton get?

Romney is a Mormon, but he is not a Mormon candidate.

He is the Mormon candidate.

Romney is a Presidential candidate, and you should at least attempt to become somewhat more open minded and not show your prejudices so overtly.

Perhaps some day you will learn to become a more open minded person.

if you love mormons so much, why don't you marry them? (you would be allowed to marry a bunch of them)

Second half was just to get your goat. I've got nothing against Mormons, anyways. (Well, not more than against any other sort of Evangelical. Possibly less.) Their herd voting instincts though... are a legitimate object for satire, to say the least.

No you wouldn't. But you know that I suppose.

I've split the vote into three groups. Western counties (except Clark) with Mormon populations less than 10%, eastern counties with Mormon populations over 10%, and Clark. With 38% of the vote:

West: Romney 42%, McCain 17%, Paul 16%
East: Romney 58%, McCain 12%, Paul 11%
Clark: Romney 59%, McCain 11%, Paul 11%

[Person Man]

Romney is now at 56%....lol.

[Lincoln Republican]

romney is a beast

No, Romney is a winner.  Just look at the results.

56% for Romney last I saw.

That's a pretty bigoted comment about someone's religion.

[Person Man]

Yeah, it was. Though Polygamy does have humorous results. I mean, do you think some of those dating reality shows could be about a man saying " the contest! You are all part of my harem!"

[Sam Spade]

Interesting to note in the exit poll that not only were 27% of caucusgoers Mormon, but also that 34% of caucusgoers had incomes over $100,000.  Romney didn't necessarily perform any better statistically among them than other caucusgoers, but their % strikes me as inordinately high (to put it mildly)

To me, this really offers some validity about Jake's point concerning Romney's supporters that he made a couple of days ago.

Romney's support is disproportionately upper income - or something to that effect.

non-Mormon Christian update: Romney leads convincingly with 38%.

[CultureKing]

why are the results stalled for the republicans at 38% of precincts?

[CultureKing]

Oh and Paul is currently in second place.

You are really a total loser.

I guess the people supposed to count em are all busy watching the Dem Caucus election coverage on tv or calling up likely voters in SC in a GOTV effort.

[JohnnyLongtorso]

According to the Nevada GOP site (http://www.nvgopcaucus.com/results), they're up to 1398/1789 precincts, which would be about 78%, not 38%.

[Meeker]

The Republicans deported everyone who was going to count their ballots.

[Robespierre's Jaw]

I can't say I'm surprised that Mitt Romney has won Nevada convincingly. Nor am I surprised that Ron Paul is likely to finish in second place. Pretty boring Caucus if you ask me.

[Meeker]

Looks like the entrance poll over favored Paul by 7-10 points.
