Not just a winner, but a BIG winner at +50% of the vote. No one else looks likely to top 20%.

My guess would be that Romney will make the 20% threshold as he is at (52 - 16 = 36) 36% now. He may drop some but appears to share the statewide/bonus delegates.

http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P12/KS-R#0310


25 delegates (10 base at-large delegates and 15 bonus delegates) to the Republican National Convention are proportionally allocated to presidential contenders based on the statewide vote. A 20% threshold is required in order for a presidential contender to be allocated National Convention delegates. However, if only one candidate or no candidate receives the 20%, there is no threshold.

[the percentage of votes received] = [votes cast for each candidate] ÷ [total votes cast for all candidates meeting the threshold].

Beginning with the candidate who received the most votes, multiply [the percentage of votes received] by [25 National Convention Delegates] and round any remainder up to the next whole number. Repeat for the next highest vote getter until all 25 delegates are allocated. [Section VI. 2. A.]

The 3 party leaders delegates (Todd Tiahrt, the National Committeeman, Helen van Etten, the National Committeewoman, and Amanda Adkins, Chair of the Kansas Republican Party) will attend the convention bound to the candidate who receives the most votes statewide. [Section VI. 3.]

If Newt was a class act, he would now bow out and endorse Rick. But he isn’t. Folks, he has NO strength outside a few SE states. What the hell is the man’s point?

Why won’t Santorum release his fathers naturalization documents? Why is this question not being asked and answered? Is he another Obama?

It's Obama or Rick
America take your pick
no crypto-Lefty like Mitt
and Newt Gingrich sure ain't it
can save our beloved land
from Obama’s tyrannical hand.

Rick should drop out and give his delegates to Newt.

Just want to be first at something. </sarcasm>

This is almost as exciting as Romney’s wins in Guam and the Northern Mariana Island. Both foregone conclusions.
