A friend of mine texted me to "call" that Romney was going to win...after results had been coming in for two hours and after CNN and the rest of the world had called it...#fail

lol

[Tender Branson]

Looks like ARG's going to win this one ...

PPP, InsiderAdvantage and Suffolk were all meh ...

Romney is winning the females vote with 51%, not bad with a multi-candidate race

I guess Politico was right about there being relatively little difference between income levels.

(Although clearly the proverbial 1%ers love the Mittster extra-much).

Of course I was right. There is no class divide, or any such rubbish.

This proves to you that no matter what your income is, people want to get rid of the class divide that's happening currently in the US with the this administration.

Not only is Romney winning the overall primary, but Gingrich's strongholds (conservatives and Tea-Party supporters) are also voting for Romney. I am having trouble thinking up a scenario where Gingrich can win the nomination.

>60% of the $200K for Romney but he couldn't even break 50% in any category below that?

[Lincoln Republican]

Okay, Mitt won't even be close to 50%. Good to know.

Take what small comfort you can even though Romney has achieved an absolute blowout.

[Tender Branson]

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

If all that is true, than why is Romney doing 20 points better among people who make 200K+ than he is among people who make 30K or less?

[Politico]

There's no stopping us now, Winnie!

41%, 40% or 60%, there's not much difference in income percentages. My point is, the current president is a class divider.

[Lincoln Republican]

Romney gets more votes than Gingrich and Santorum combined.

Romney achieves a remarkable win.

CONGRATULATIONS MITT!

Self-identification, not registration.

One, you need to control for geographical location. Two, there is no way to verify the people who say they earn over 200K per year actually earn over 200K per year.

The point is this, though: Romney is winning all groups except evangelical Christians, which he lost by three points, and certain rural counties, specifically in the panhandle.

[JohnnyLongtorso]

Mitt Romney's Junior Action Rangers to the rescue!

Take your time, gents.

Hah!  If you say so.  The Romney rich entitlement syndrome to pay 14% or less on taxes while people who do work pay much higher has been exposed.  There is a class divider, and he is on a roll to win the GOP nomination

Then what's the point of exit polls?  There is clearly a division in the GOP primary base according to income.  <$30K had about 60% vote for non-Romney, >$200K had about 60% vote for Romney

[Eraserhead]

Okay, Mitt won't even be close to 50%. Good to know.

Fixed that for you.

[The_Texas_Libertarian]

Romney is even winning Duval County.  I wonder what kind of speech Gingrich will deliver tonight

[Tender Branson]

This one is slightly faster with counting/reporting the votes:
