Romney just took the lead on Google, apparently.

...but no change in precincts. Weird.

Keokuk - Sigourney Plank Van Buren had 38 Republican votes in 2008: 19 Huckabee, 7 Romney, 6 Paul, 3 McCain, 2 Thompson, 1 Giuliani.

Clinton - Clinton W2p2 had 122 Republican votes in 2008: 44 Romney, 31 McCain, 22 Huckabee, 13 Thompson, 8 Paul, 4 Giuliani.

Not looking great for Santorum.

Is the entire CNN team drunk right now?
Was thinking the same thing. Guess they figured nobody would be watching at 1:30! Tongue

If the 2 precincts that remain vote in the same proportion as the rest of their respective counties, Romney will win by 30 votes.

Might want to check your math...

I rounded wrong... 29.  But what's wrong with that?

If they vote like the rest of their counties, Romney won't net more than a couple of votes.

Clinton: 29/30 reporting.

Romney has 386.  386/29*30 = 399
Santorum has 321.  321/29*30 = 332

Keokuk: 15/16 reporting.

Romney has 73.  73/15*16 = 78
Santorum has 92.  92/15*16 = 98

Romney 399+78 = 477
Santorum 332+98 = 430

Giving Romney a lead of 47.

Santorum leads by 18 now, so 47-18 = 29.


You start with Romney 386+73=459, Santorum 321+92=413. That's Romney +46.
After adding the two precincts those counties would be Romney +47.
That's a net gain of only 1 for Romney.

"Sigourney Plank Van Buren" likely includes parts of the city of Sigourney and Plank and Van Buren townships.  I suspect it might be a slightly larger precinct for the county.

EDIT: Sigourney seems to be slightly more Romney-friendly, for the county.

The other missing precinct is a ward in the Mississippi river city of Clinton, Iowa.  Romney won 4, Santorum 2 and Paul 1 of Clinton's precincts.

By the way, the city of Keokuk isn't in Keokuk County just as Des Moines isn't in Des Moines County.

Oh, God.

There is a slight problem with those maths.
The reported precincts are already added to the current total!

Yeah, I screwed up...

It could be a tie.  Smiley

According to David Wasserman of the Cook Political Report, the outstanding precinct in Clinton County, which has slightly favored Mitt Romney tonight, had 422 John McCain voters in the general election of 2008. Based on the ratio of caucus-goers tonight to the number of votes for Mr. McCain in 2008, that would imply it has about 75 caucus votes outstanding.
 
By the same method, the outstanding precinct in Keokuk County, which has the wonderfully Iowan name "Sigourney Plank Van Buren" and which might favor Mr. Santorum, should have about 30 caucus-goers.

Santorum is ahead again after Keokuk comes in. Now we just need Clinton's precinct.

And apparently there was a change in Storey county where Romney leads again.

According to the State Republican Party, the outstanding are in Clinton and Lee counties, not Keokuk as the politico map suggests.

No, it's definitely Clinton and Keokuk Counties that are missing a precinct.  The confusion arises because the city of Keokuk is in Lee County.

Keokuk County's precinct just reported.  So it's just Clinton - Clinton W2p2 now.

According to the IA GOP precinct-by-precinct results, it was the Clinton county precinct that came in, with the Keokuk precinct still out.

At the risk of sounding like a Paultard conspiracy theorist, what happened to the "no recount" rule?

Google says Santorum gained 12 and Romney 7 in Keokuk, but CNN has Romney leading...
