Michigan Primary Results


Romney Gets Needed Victory

Yesterday was the Michigan Primary, and a big day for Mitt Romney. He won the Republican primary with John McCain coming in second. Here are the GOP results:
  1. Romney: 39%
  2. McCain: 30%
  3. Huckabee: 16%
  4. Paul: 6%
  5. Thompson: 4%
  6. Giuliani: 3%

Democrats were not competing in the state because all of their delegates were stripped for voting to early. This is why the picture above is very awkward. Barack Obama and John Edwards took their name off the ballot. Hillary Clinton kept her's on, and that's why she won. Here are the Democratic results:

  1. Clinton: 55%
  2. Uncommitted: 40%
  3. Kucinich: 4%

Next stop is on Saturday. Nevada holds their caucus for both parties. Clinton, Obama, and Edwards are in a tough battle. Republicans aren't really putting that much effort in the state. That's because South Carolina holds their Republican primary the same day. That's shaping up to be a tough battle between Mccain, Huckabee, Thompson, and possibly Romney.
