State Caucus Results
(Republican) About
half of the Republican delegates
will be allocated through the
caucus system. The rest are to be
determined through the Feb. 19
primary election. McCain had 3,468 votes for
26% Huckabee had 3,226 votes for
24% Ron Paul had 2,799 votes for
21% **As of Sunday evening,
Feb. 10, Huckabee is disputing
the results of the Washington
Republican Caucuses, claiming
that the party, led by Luke
Esser, called the race for McCain
too soon. Legal action may
follow. Washington
State Caucus Results
(Democrat) All
of the Democrat's Washington
delegates were allocated through
the caucus system. The primary
election on Feb. 19 is
essentially meaningless for
Democrats in terms of delagate
allocation. Obama had 21,696 votes for
68%, which gives him 25 pledged
delegates Clinton had 9,992 votes for
31%, which gives her 12 pledged
delegates Feb.

Senator John
Edwards--48,666=17%--
A distant third place
finish. He may do well in
parts of the South, especially
in South Carolina, and in
strong union states, but at
this point, his best hope is
to end up with enough pledged
delegates in the Democratic
Convention to be a king or
queen maker in the event
Clinton and Obama finish in a
virtual dead heat by
summer-time.--Number

votes=37%--The
Winner--Number of
Delegates from New Hampshire:
7 Mitt
Romney--75,202
votes=31%--Even though he took
second place, as in Iowa, he
was expected to do better in
New Hampshire, which is
literally in his neck of the
woods, as Romney is a former
governor of
Massachusetts.--Number of
Delegates from New Hampshire:
4 Mike
Huckabee--26,760
votes=11%--New Hampshire
prides itself on ignoring the
Iowa results, and the
Evangelical base in N.H. is
not comparable to that found
in Iowa. Upcoming Southern
States (The Bible Belt), may
be good to Huckabee, perhaps
at the expense of
Romney.--Number of
Delegates from New Hampshire:
1 Rudy
Giuliani--20,387
votes=9%--Did not run in New
Hampshire. Giuliani is waiting
for the Southern Primaries,
where he has put most of his
time, energy, resources, and
his political
future.--Number of
Delegates from New Hampshire:
0 Ron
Paul--18,276
votes=8%--Paul is still
hanging in there, representing
the true Libertarian and
anti-Iraq War wing of the
Republican Party.--Number
of Delegates from New
Hampshire: 0 Fred
Thompson--2,884
votes=1%--Thompson did not
look good in the last debate.
This may be the beginning of
the end for his latest

Republican Precinct Caucuses
on Jan. 25 Iowa
Update: Democrats: Candidates
in the January 3, 2008 Iowa
Caucuses: Former
Senator John
Edwards--29%--Still alive
as the campaign heads for New
Hampshire Senator
Hillary
Clinton--29%--Huge
defeat for Hillary as she
entered Iowa the clear
front-runner, and is now in
3rd place. She can still pick
it up in New Hampshire and
hopes the Clinton magic can
transform her into a new
"Comeback Kid," like another
Clinton did sixteen years
ago. Governor
Bill Richardson--2% Senator
Joseph Biden--1% Uncommitted--Less
than 1% Senator
Christopher Dodd--Less than
1% Former
Senator Mike Gravel--Less than
1% Representative
Dennis
Kucinich--Less
than 1% Republicans: Candidates
in the January 3, 2008 Iowa
Caucuses: Mike
Huckabee--34%--The winner.
Helped by the Evangelical
turnout, and by Chuck Norris
standing over his
shoulder. Mitt
Romney--25%--Even though he
took second place, he far
outspent Huckabee, and losing
by nine percentage points
represents a big fall. May do
better in New
Hampshire. Fred
Thompson--13%--Not bad
considering he entered the
race late. John
McCain--13%--Not a bad
considering he did not really
run in Iowa and devoted his
resources to New Hampshire.
Must win next week in the
Granite State to
survive. Ron
Paul--10%--May do well in
libertarian-minded New
Hampshire. Rudy
Giuliani--4%--Did
not run in Iowa. Competing in
Iowa and then losing badly
would have hurt him more than
not competing Duncan
Hunter--1%--Irrelevant before,
much more irrelevant
now. Tom
Tancredo--Dropped out of
the race on October 28, 2007.
