Nevada Caucus Results

Clinton, Romney Win


Yesterday, the voters in Nevada came out to caucus. Hillary Clinton pulled off an impressive win over Barack Obama. In my opinion, John Edwards did awful. Here were the Democratic results:

  1. Clinton: 51%
  2. Obama: 45%
  3. Edwards: 4%

On the Republican side, Mitt Romney won huge. However, he was the only Republican to campaign in the state over the past few days, while the rest were in South Carolina. What's odd here is that Ron Paul came in second. It goes to show that nobody had a real base of support in Nevada, besides Romney. Here are the GOP results:


  1. Romney: 51%
  2. Paul: 14%
  3. McCain: 13%
  4. Huckabee: 8%
  5. Thompson: 8%
  6. Giuliani: 4%

This win has put Romney in the lead when it comes to delegates. However, he is not considered the front-runner. Clinton has gained momentum since her Iowa lost, and we will probably see a very tough battle between her and Obama this Saturday in South Carolina.
