More from the US elections.
CNN has a very useful score card if you want to delve into the information a bit more:
Democrats : http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/scorecard/#val=D
Republicans : http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/scorecard/#val=R
In Nevada, Romney won the popular vote and picked up 18 delegates, with Ron Paul and John McCain coming second with 4 seats each. Ron Paul seems to have had a reasonable amount of support in Nevada.. certainly his pro-gambling stance (as part of his overall small government, libertarian views) will have gone over well.
The Democrat vote was 'won' by Hilary over Obama. But Obama actually picked up one more delegate than Hilary. Strange way of winning (though she did get the popular vote).
South Carolina was a very strong showing by John McCain over Huckabee, who had hoped his pro-Christian views would have been an asset. No-one else got a single delegate out of the state, with Romney being forced back to fourth place behind Fred Thompson.
Scores (ignoring superdelegates and the rest):
Democrat:
Obama 38
Clinton 36
Edwards 18
The Rest : Nil Points
Republican:
Romney 66
McCain 38
Huckabee 26
Thompson 8
Paul 6
Guiliani 1
Hunter (retired) 1
Next Up: South Carolina for the Democrats this Saturday, and Florida for everyone a week Tuesday.
