Turnout steady — for now
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
The city Election Board reports that turnout was steady in the morning, but that could change in the afternoon and evening, when the weather forecast calls for steady rain — and possibly even hail.
No midday results today. Check back to STLToday.com after polls close at 7 p.m. — as soon as local results are available, we’ll have them.
Bad weather and no paying for votes in the city? Looks like the democrat turnout will be lower than expected.
it is way too early to suggest that democratic vot in the city will be smaller. This election is too important for anyone to sit back and let someone else go vote. So i feel the democrats will come out in force and make sure their vote is counted.
many republicans and racist people will hope that the african american votes will not trun out because of rain. not going to happen.
the democrats will show that we mean business and this is a opportunity to show the rest of the country that WE are ready for change and if it is going to happen, we will be part of the change.
I don’t know why the republicans are coming out….Be for real. We will not have a republican in the white house again. We are tired of them screwing up the country with their wild cowboy administration.
So who ever goes out to vote. in the General election, the democrats will win the White house back and i can hardly wait!
Does your shift key work?
“many republicans and racist people will hope that the african american votes will not trun out because of rain. not going to happen.”
Why would racist democrats want a lower turnout? Its the sexists vs the racists in the dem primary.
I figured it was a Clinton decision to not pay for votes in the city for fear that many will vote for Obama.
OMG. Huckabee won WVA. Polls this afternoon show him way ahead in ‘Bama and tied in Ga. What gives? Get out and vote!
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - Mike Huckabee won the first contest declared on Super Tuesday, picking up all 18 national delegates awarded at West Virginia’s state GOP convention.
Huckabee bested Mitt Romney, who entered the Mountain State event with the largest bloc of pledged convention-goers. Both men and Ron Paul made in-person appeals to the more than 1,100 convention delegates attending Tuesday’s convention.
But the former Arkansas governor beat his Massachusetts counterpart after delegates for John McCain defected to his side.
The first round of voting at the state convention produced no winner, but eliminated Paul after his fourth-place finish.
The results are the first from the 21 states with GOP primaries or caucuses Tuesday.
