Nevada is very similar to New York and Illinois. It's all about the biggest city. So much of Nevada's population is concentrated in Las Vegas that Romney or anyone else could lose everywhere else in the state and still carry by a landslide.
I like what I'm hearing so far. Ron Paul is doing very very well. (The polls were way off on that one!) I definitely wouldn't mind seeing this be Paul's first outright win.
More than anything, I hope it hurts Gingrich. I'm so sick of that media **** stealing press coverage from absolutely everyone else, especially Ron Paul.
Point taken about Clark county. Though I don't think it will hurt any candidate much Missouri will be make or break for Santorum and the southern super Tuesday will be Gingrich's make or break.
I also think it is interesting that thus far Romney is under performing relative to how he did 4 years ago. With only 4% in he has lost 2 counties for sure (100% reporting). Last time around he only lost a single county.
Well in some of these counties it doesn't mean much,some of them barely have 100 total voters.When you get beat 38 to 37 that one vote means a lot percentage wise but little in reality.We shall see when its over statewide how much he over or underperformed
I'll be curious to see Newter's reaction. Will he have himself a little tantrum like he did after Iowa, New Hampshire and Florida?
If it were possible, I'd offer up a $50 bet that after losing NV by a margin of 2 to 1, Newt will demand that Santorum and Paul drop out immediately and that all of his supporters must now vote for him.
I'm still waiting to see if Newt can remain dignified when he loses. What would that look like exactly?
Romney is not doing nearly as well as predicted. Paul doing better but third is the best he will finish.
Clark County (Las Vegas and suburbs.)
County Population: 1,375,765
Percentage of Nevadans living in Clark County: 68.85 %
Clark County hasn't reported jack squat. We won't know anything useful until they do. Clark County is 70% of Nevada so I think we need to see what they have to say on the matter.
Breaking - big ruckus at Adelson's special Newt caucus where Paul supporters are being manhandled and turned away because they are non-Jewish!
WTF is happening? Voters being denied entry because of their religion??
Well I don't know exactly but I had heard days ago that the party was allowing a 'special caucus' for 'sabbath observant jews' who would be excluded otherwise from voting.If the Ron Paul supporters aren't jewish why are they there?Shouldn't they already have voted?

If you bet anybody on that, you made you some money tonight. I have never seen anything like that in all of the years I have been observing politics. Gingrich is melting down right in front of our eyes!
