When are results expected to begin to come out?

Michigan should start reporting something right around now: the bulk of the state has just finished voting. The rest of Michigan and Arizona will be finished voting in an hour.

First 100+votes in

Santorum 47%
Romney 34%
Paul 14%
Gingrich 4%

Purely symbolic at this point, of course.

These are absentees still, right? Romney +3 probably isn't going to be enough.

Probably, a lot more than that. It's 24% reporting, Romney w/ 8500 vote lead.

Not gonna be enough for Romney at this point now that absentees are done. He needed them to be decisive. +3 isn't enough.

The problem is, it's not like they first count absentees everywhere. It was in early counts that Santorum's been ahead - recently, Romney lead has been steadily growing, not falling (it's now about 9500 votes).

Absentees are over 25 percent - those votes that put Romney over were still absentees. Now we're getting into the actual ballots.

It's still way, way too early to call it for Romney.

It is, indeed, too early to call for Romney, but it's getting there. Oakland and Wayne counties are reporting 12%-13%, while the state has reported 30%. And that's where the Romney margin is.

And no, there is no reason to believe, abstentees are counted first everywhere. It's up to each county how they do this.

It's very steady: 3% lead, which, in absolute terms, is now about 12,000 votes (35% reporting).

11k, margin is narrowing.

What do I get if Santorum comes from behind? Smiley

Yeah, it was about 13,000 and now it is about 11,500. Still not time to call it - but, given what's left, Romney should do well.

They've deleted Hillsdale county results - the last results before that were showing "others" winning there by a big margin.
