I need the CNN stream.
No idea. And the special caucus results should be in now as well. Would like to go to bed here...

I think that's including the special caucus
Huh? I'm just saying that if they were waiting for the special caucus to end before releasing the results...well they don't have to wait any longer

Most of the results were in for NV by late afternoon in 2008, what is going on in NV? I remember the same 'what gives?' feeling in 2010, when most all polls showed Angle 5% ahead of Reid before election day, then suddenly, Reid gets re-elected by 5%. Hmmmmm...

CNN prematurely put up those numbers, they have to drive down the ballots before they are announcing Clark county I believe

LAS VEGAS — The ballot count in the Republican presidential caucus in Nevada was expected to take all night, according to the county GOP official in charge of the process in Las Vegas.
Clark County GOP vice chairman Woody Stroupe told The Associated Press late Saturday that party officials were recounting every ballot cast in Nevada's largest county to ensure the accuracy of the tally.
Complete results would not be made public until every vote was counted, he said, though some 400 votes from 30 out of a total of 1,073 precincts were posted by the party.
"We're probably going to be going all night," Stroupe said.
Stroupe said it took his five teams of two officials each four hours to count ballots from eight of 40 caucus sites. But he said the process was getting quicker as they continued.

"I think we're going to be done by sunrise," Stroupe said.
Stroupe said the recount wasn't because of a challenge, but was party procedure.
Mitt Romney topped the Nevada caucus. With about 43 percent of the votes counted, Romney led with 42 percent. Newt Gingrich had 26 percent, Ron Paul was third with 18 percent and Rick Santorum had 13 percent.
Representatives from each candidate's campaign were in the room as observers, but media was not allowed, he said.
James Smack, a Nevada state GOP party executive in Reno, said secondary counts were allowed by party rules, and were being done Saturday in all 17 of Nevada's counties.
He noted that Clark County is the most populous county in the state, with about 60 percent of Nevada's active voters.

I dont know for sure, but I think he is basing that off the percentages of the 3% that is currently reporting for Clark County. That % will probably be skewed a bit as the special caucus got taken over by Paul supporters. But who knows, that may turn out to be the actualy percentage. I sure hope so.

I calculated about 700 vote difference in favor of Newt before Clark was being counted.
Newt was up 1300.
After 51% of Clark in - Newt is up 1000
If the percentages hold for the rest of the Clark county, Ron will gain another 300 votes leaving us 700 behind Newt.
