With over 90% of precincts reporting, it’s Huckabee (41%), McCain (38%), Romney (18%), and Paul (3%) on the GOP side.
The Democrats’ order is Obama (56%), Clinton (42%), and Edwards (2% though he has dropped out).
Huckabee and McCain will split Alabama’s GOP delegates. Romney needed to get 20% to receive delegates in the GOP primary. (He would have needed only 15% in the Democratic primary to receive delegates.)
Obama and Clinton will each receive Alabama delegates. With the Democrats splitting delegates, this could conceivably go on for a while.
Probably not anything here so far on this that you could not have found elsewhere, but…
- I did want to point you to this link that has the results by Congressional District. And this link has results by county. And…
- I wanted to have an opportunity to hear any comments on what you thought about this.

Over 500,000 Republican Primary voters, the most in history.
With 98% in Rep lead the Dems in total vote.
Combined Turnout at 42% of active voters
Just off the top of my head, looks to me an ideal statewide candidate would be some one with high charisma, a positive message, promises of Change, strong street level work and who loves Jesus just a touch more than he loves his guns, will do well. Which has been our history since at least the 50’s. (Guy Hunt was an exception).
This also been an election when the traditional signs and bumper stickers everywhere were practically non existent in my area.
More Republicans than Democrats voted yesterday.
I’ve never been a one-issue voter, but I’m disappointed that a candidate with anti-evolution views has won approval of Alabama voters.
Yeah, a lot of moss-backs turned out to try to stop McCain. In a way, Huckleberry’s win here proves that he may be right about evolution being a myth.
One of the things that has been frying me in the past weeks… I was talking to someone yesterday who was saying that she wanted to vote for Ron Paul but didn’t– because he was no longer in the race. Paul actually had been doing better than Huckabee in some states and beat out Giulliani well before Rudy dropped out. Not to mention, Ron Paul has raised more money than any Republican candidate. Yet the media has refused to give any acknowledgment that Paul was still in the race– and as such are directly responsible for the results.
This election has confirmed yet again that Joe Reed can drag down anybody. He got beat in his city council race, he got whipped trying to run for the state senate. He is the kiss of death when it comes to elections, particularly in the black community. And now Joe Reed wants to be party chair.
Please–oh please–let the Democrats elect Joe Reed state party chair!
One week after blowing a house race the GOP won Cullman by a two to one margin in total votes. Ill never understand voters….
Voters are easy to understand, begin by grokking humans and their feline masters.
I can explain the disparity in Cullman easily: voters have disassosciated the state GOP from the national GOP. Also, McCain and Huckabee both appeal to the same kind of middle-class evangelical Republican-leaning independents who accounted for Fields’ huge victory. No matter what the media says, most of the conservative independents I know in Cullman like McCain and Huckabee both (but usually loathe Romney).
Sounds like Cullman GOP voters are learning the same trick Democratic party voters learned after the collapse of the Dixiecrats.
It says a lot that Republicn-leaning voters in Cullman have decided that they prefer a national GOP in disarray to Hubbard and Co.
