Romney Shows Momentum Winning Washington's Non Binding Caucuses
Mitt Romney has won Washington non-binding caucuses. The results were based on a nonbinding straw poll of participants in the caucuses. With 91% of caucuses reporting, Romney wins with 37 percent. Ron Paul was second with 25 percent; Rick Santorum 24 percent, and Newt Gingrich 11 percent. Washington State has 43 delegates and will hold County Conventions / Legislative District Caucus: Saturday 17 March - Saturday 21 April 2012 and then the State Convention: Wednesday 30 May - Saturday 2 June 2012. The anticipated delegate distribution is Romney 15 delegates, Paul 10 delegates, Santorum 10 delegates, Newt 5 delegates. The 3 remaining unassigned delegates.
The Spokesman Review identified that in Washington, caucuses are meetings for like-minded people. Today it was for Republicans. Since Washington doesn't register voters by party, the caucus attendee must say that he or she is a Republican and that they will not attend a Democratic caucus in April. A good visual of tonight's results is below:
