Don’t know much about the NV Caucus.....but wasn’t the larger than expected turn-out smaller than 4 years ago, and wasn’t the predicted “Romney enthusiasm surge” a bit less than expected, considering he won a large percentage and all that?

AP has Romney at 47.6%, he won 51% in 2008.

In 2008, Ron Paul was 2nd with less than 14%, Newt is showing at 22.7%.

That is not all. There was no publicity about these caucuses to speak of. Nothing was ever mailed to party members about when and where the caucuses weer to be held. If it were not for the fact that I am on-line a lot, I would have had no clue as to when to caucus. Four years ago, I got plenty of information in plenty of time, but this time, NOTHING! I had to contact the registrar of voters to get the information I needed, who referred me to the GOP headquarters. Calling the republican headquarters just got an answering machine to leave your name and number for a call back, which did not happen. I finally reached someone and found I had to register on-line, and then the website didn't work the first few times I tried to access it. I don't know what to think of all of this. I am told the reason is that the GOP does not have any money; perhaps if the GOP wants our money, they had better just stop playing favorites with Romney, and perhaps they had better start disciplining candidates who would campaign the way Romney has done. The truth is, he IS destroying our party in his quest to win the nomination, and nothing is being done to stop it! I am looking at third parties at this point, the constitution party looks good to me. Wake up RNC!

Some complained the whole process was designed to restrict voters there to Jews and Seventh Day Adventist who both observe Saturday as the Sabbath.

I'm confused. I thought that was exactly the reason they had the night caucus, for those two particular religious groups. Everybody else was supposed to go to the caucus for their home address.

"Chairwoman Amy Tarkanian's resignation took effect at 12:01 a.m. Status of the chair up in air."

Bizarre.
