The results are just coming in now. And Huckabee appears to have taken Kansas running away. More soon. See the results on our scoreboard down to the right.
Continuing Update: It looks clear that Huckabee didn’t just win but won in a blowout. It’s important to note that Kansas is good territory for Huckabee. Evolution’s been on the defensive in the state for many years. And it’s a caucus, which privileges the most committed and engaged voters. That said, McCain’s the presumptive nominee. So it will be important to watch how many states Huckabee can either win or seriously compete in. If the presumptive nominee continues to lose states that will, by definition, be a sign of something less than party unity.
Doofus Election Official Update: You’ll notice on our election results scoreboard in the news section that we’ve got vote results out of Kansas but no percentage of how many caucuses have reported. It turns out that the state party officials forgot to include percentage reporting in their results.
Final Update: With 100% of caucuses reporting, Huckabee takes 60%, McCain 24%, and Ron Paul 11%.–DK
