Clinton carries the Strip

Hillary Clinton has carried five of the nine at-large casino sites on the Strip, despite the influence of the Culinary Union. Clinton has carried at sites in the Flamingo, the Rio, Paris Las Vegas, the Bellagio, and Wynn Las Vegas. Only the site at Caesars has gone for Obama so far.

First vote at the Mirage was 178 for Clinton and 153 for Obama and 3 for Edwards and three uncommitted. So on second round, that site, too, apparently will go for Clinton. The Luxor site is closely divided and voting again. No word from New York New York.

  4. Eat my shorts Pilar and D.

  5. Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Thank you NEVADA! We love you!
    Let's have AMERICA back to their common sense!

  7. Talk about intimidation. Did Bill get to vote and count the votes when he was INSIDE the caucus? Nevada Democrats have just helped the Republicans have a chance in November. They are itching to get at Hill/Bill again. Let's just shoot ourselves in the foot again. What stupidity!

  8. Yay for Hillary!

    I really think that she worked hard for this victory. Much deserved bc she kicked a** in the debate.

    Hillary-obama '08 experience and vision for a better future

  9. I'm a Democrat, but I swear to god if Clinton wins the primaries, I'm voting for a Republican in November. Obama 08

  10. This is a free country. Voters voted for their choices of candidates. All the endorsements and spinners won't do much good if they don't reflect the voices of the people. American people did not lose just because more Nevadan voters preferred Clinton to Obama. If people don't like Clinton, they can always vote for a Republican in November if Clinton turns out to be the nominee. The reality is that unless the economy can recover quickly, the Republican nominee will lose in a general election.
