Wall Street Willie Wins Washington Caucuses

Wall Street Willie (Willard Mitt Romney) had a good day in Washington yesterday. He outperformed expectations and won the caucuses fairly handily. Ron Paul and Rick Santorum both had hopes of carrying the state, but wound up vying for second place. The final delegate totals for each candidate won't be official until the state convention, but they will roughly equal the percentages the candidates received yesterday. Here are the numbers for Washington:

WASHINGTON CAUCUS (94% reporting)
Mitt Romney...............17,275  (36.69%)
Ron Paul...............11,767  (24.99%)

  1. What's striking about these numbers, as they have been in the other primary states, is how low the turn out is. The 2010 census for Washington showed they have 6,724,540 people and 76% of those are of voting age.

    47, 000 people who voted in this primary represents less than 1% of the voting population in Washington state. There just doesn't seem to be as much enthusiasm as you would think there would be for the Party whose mission it is to make Obama a one-term President
