BenK, what do you mean that Santorum’s areas are left to come?
Cheshire county has been solid Santorum territory (+50 pct) vs Newt all night. 1200 votes vs 800.
With 30 percent outstanding, I estimated another 400 for Newt and 600 for Santorum for +200 on his margin vs Newt. That, didn’t happen unfortunately.
From 70-100 the votes didn’t cut Newt’s lead any, meaning they split votes where Santorum had been getting 50 percent more. With Newt leading by 200 votes over about 8 pct or so, with no favourable break to Santorum area, the gap is probably going to end up about 200 votes in favor of Newt.
