In my county (Prince William), McCain won with over 50%. However, only 1500 people voted (there’s still a few precincts left to count).

In some elections, we have more than that many voters at my PRECINCT. The vote was less than 1% of the electorate.

The race is over, the republicans are sure McCain is the nominee and they aren’t coming out to vote. And even in THAT environment, Huckabee couldn’t beat McCain.

My guess is that if the race had been McCain/Romney, Romney would have won, and over twice as many republicans would have voted.

BTW, the democrats had almost 7000 votes. That’s over 4/1 over the republicans.

But our county is still republican — our county board chair won last november with almost 60% of the vote.

It is clear that more than a few republicans showed up to vote for Obama. He won 63-36%, and that’s after Hillary had an event here in our town on Sunday, and with a large hispanic population (which apparently is voting for Obama?).

I know of 6 people who voted for Romney, but he only got 69 total votes. He didn’t beat Ron Paul. Of course, Ron is still in the race and had signs all over the place here.

I think there are more Ron Paul signs in this country, than Ron Paul supporters. Ron Paul signs are EVERYWHERE!

Obama smashed Clinton Inc in Virginia and just passed Hillary in the Delegate count.

Could Virginia be the beginning of the end for the Clintons?

CNN is showing Prince William with over 5,000 votes counted in GOP and only 29% counted. Nil desperandum.
