After going more than a month without a victory (or even a second place finish, for that matter) it looks like Rick Santorum will finally get to bask in the glow of victory for a change. In two states that are holding caucuses tonight (Minnesota and Colorado) he is currently running well ahead of his rivals, and in the meaningless Missouri primary (which won’t be used to allocate any delegates) he has more than twice the number of votes that establishment favorite Mitt Romney has.
Here are the current results from each state:
Minnesota (as of 8:18 PM): 51.32% of precincts reporting
Colorado (as of 8:18 PM): 3.4% of precincts reporting
Missouri (as of 8:18 PM): 98% of precincts reporting
A few things to keep in mind:
TPM has a recap of Santorum’s victory speech in the Show Me State.
UPDATE, 9:16 PM: Mitt Romney has pulled even with Rick Santorum in Colorado.
In 2008, Romney won the Colorado caucuses pretty handily. But he’s not doing so well this time around.
