L. Coyote
(51,129 posts)given the late reporting counties are voting heavily for Romney. But, it will still be close in the end.

(24,689 posts)and santorums not so much
Mr.Turnip
(645 posts)Also Newt really should drop out now, he utterly failed everywhere outside of Georgia.
If he wasn't in the race instead of "OHIO TOO CLOSE TO CALL" the story would be more like "Rick Santorum has won Ohio by a modest margin"

(20,450 posts)But I agree with you re: Gingrich: he is causing Santorum to lose this thing. Had he pulled out earlier, Santorum may have won in MI and now OH.

Mr.Turnip
(645 posts)So I think this clown show will go on quite some more.
Santorum REALLY needs to force Gingrich out soon.

(7,476 posts)Santorum has five counties he leads in yet to fully report. Romney has ten. Romney's are high population areas too. I don't see how Santorum can win.

(51,129 posts)romney survives yet again.
Mr.Turnip
(645 posts)Romney will be winning by around 1% it looks like, Newt got 15% of the vote.

(51,129 posts)Even if rural precincts are small and the urban are large, this will not change in outcome now. There are 308 precincts still out, and they will not all swing to Santorum by over 20 votes each on average.

(10,857 posts)This one was close enough to steal. I wonder if Romney will have to give it back in a couple of weeks?
