Breaking: Santorum Surges, Wins All 3 Caucus States
Rick Santorum Tuesday night won all three caucus states: Missouri, Minnesota, and Colorado. Colorado was exceptionally close, with only one percentage point — representing a few hundred votes — separating Santorum from Mitt Romney. Santorum beat Romney in Missouri by a huge margin: 55% to 25%.
Missouri does not deliver any delegates, nor was Newt Gingrich on its ballot.
Current delegate breakdown is now:
Romney 102
Gingrich 35
Paul 18
Santorum 17
