Read that news a little more closely. In my opinion, those are NOT statewide results. Statewide results are listed separately at the bottom of the article...

E. WASH. - Thousands turned out as Precinct Caucuses for the Democratic and Republican Parties were held Saturday at various locations throughout the area. The Spokane Democratic Chair reported seeing double the number of usual voter turn out some precincts, even triple in some places such as the 4th Legislative District.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Republican Caucus Results: With 60% of the precincts reporting - Ron Paul 45%, Mike Huckabee 20%, John Mccain 17%, Mitt Romney 9%, Uncommitted 9%.

Democratic Caucus Results: No clear lead with only 15% precincts reporting.

Statewide Caucus Results: The Associated Press is reporting that with 24% of results in, Barack Obama was winning 65% of delegates to Hillary Clinton's 33%.

The main page of that site seems to imply that those results are for the whole state.

Yes it does. The problem

Yes it does. The problem was not our reading comprehension, the problem was the main page's inaccuracy. If that's indeed the case.

Got 49% in Spokane, 25% state-wide

Seems to be the explanation that makes the most sense right now.

Why...

Submitted by martfuncher on Sat, 02/09/2008 - 21:21.

... would it say "60% of precincts"?

60% of what precincts? just a few? not the whole state?

Sounds like the whole state to me.

It's relevant to the other post, which suggests untruth

Submitted by slapshot on Sat, 02/09/2008 - 21:32.

The other post wrongly suggests RP is winning the whole state. They're even.
