Nevada for Mitt

As expected, Nevada has given the largest bloc of its GOP primary support to Mitt Romney. With 71% of precincts reporting, Romney has almost half of the votes, Gingrich trails with not quite half of that, just ahead of Paul, Santorum ends up with about half of their votes. See caucus results here on Google.

Turnout for the Nevada caucuses was very light. The 71% of caucuses represented here have only reported 25,000 votes. Nevada has a population of 2.7 million, according to the U.S. Census.
