Caucus Results in Colorado - An Indicator of Change?



PPPS ( Littleton) A loyal reader, Citizen Pete reports that Rick Santorum carried the evening in his local GOP precinct near Littleton, Colorado. Pete said that in 2010, only 5 citizens showed up at his precinct caucus, but there were 39 there tonight, indicative of a still active GOP race and some enthusiasm for replacing the current occupant of the White House.

The official vote tally:
  • Rick Santorum      23 votes  or 59 %
  • Mitt Romney         10 votes  or 26 %
  • Ron Paul                5 votes or 13 %
  • Newt Gingrich        1 vote or 2 %
Pete indicated with a smile that his rousing 30-second speech for Santorum probably had no influence on the result.

For his three-precinct district, the vote was slightly different, but Santorum still came out on top.

  • Santorum 47 %
  • Romney   35 %
  • Paul         13 %
  • Gingrich     5 %
