official Nevada Republican results thread

Does anybody have any exit polling by CD or is it too early? Thanks

Romney has 7 Delegates from Nevada currently -- 61 total.

What is taking the results so long?

[Meeker]

I don't think they've ever done a caucus before, so their system probably has some kinks in it.

I know -- the caucuses have been closed for 80 minutes and we don't even have 2% in, yet.

CNN has just about abandoned Nevada and moved on to South Carolina

Huckabee's now (barely) edging out Thompson for 4th place.

8 pages of comments, and we only have 1% reporting so far.

Mormon voting loyalty to Mormons is always an amazing thing to watch.

I knew Paul would've done well - so I don't know why I only said he'd get around 10%.

[J. J.]

Just because the winner of the SC primary has won the GOP nomination since 1980 or whenever, it doesn't necessarily have to be that way in 2008

I think there is a major difference between caucus and a primary.  Caucuses are more public and people can be subject to peer pressure.  In a secret ballot primary, they cannot.

Second, because of the disproportionally large number number of Mormon voters in NV, it isn't representative.  Had Mitt won NH, a neighboring state partly within the MA media market, SC would make little difference. 

Third, even though the caucuses doesn't award delegates, Romney spent time there.  The effort expanded wasn't worth the PR.

This is about SC, one of the two races between McCain and the nomination.  "The Death Star has cleared the planet!  The Death Star has cleared the planet! "

Ron Paul takes the lead against Mack Cain.

Let's hope he keeps on getting all the good vibes you and I are trying to give him here It's better not to make a prediction (that way you savor success much better)

CNN isn't even including Hunter in their on-screen ticker. Poor guy.

[TomC]

McCain better win SC or his mo is gone.

[War on Want]

W00t!!! 2% of the precincts are in!!!

[Tender Branson]

What will be the effect of the news circulating the NV Romney win on the people who are still voting in SC ? Will it lead to a slight Romney bump there ? People who are deciding at the last second going for Romney, the winner ?

It's really too bad - I really like him, and he's a really nice guy in person, but I won't vote for a guy who can't even get 1%.

I don't think so. Why would it?

Possibly, but not a huge difference. If people are really watching the NEvada results, maybe Paul will get a boost.

Results seem to have ground to a halt.

Results seem to have ground to a halt.

More came in really fast like 30 seconds ago.
