Romney Wins Michigan

CNN and Fox are both calling it for Romney. But the really big news is that people choosing 'uncommitted' rather than voting for Hillary Clinton could cause problems for her at the convention.

On the Democratic side, Sen. Hillary Clinton was the only front-runner on the ballot.

Party officials voted to strip Michigan of its Democratic delegates for its decision to schedule the primary so early.

In a show of solidarity with the party, the top-tier Democratic presidential candidates, except for Clinton, asked that their names be removed from the ballot.

But some Democratic leaders in the state urged supporters of Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois and former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards, Clinton's closest rivals, to vote "uncommitted" in the primary.

Under state law, their supporters cannot cast write-in votes for them. But if at least 15 percent of the voters in a congressional district opt for "uncommitted," delegates not bound to any candidate could attend the national convention. That could allow Edwards or Obama supporters to play a role in candidate selection — if the national party changes its mind and decides to count Michigan's delegates.

With 10 percent of precincts reporting, Clinton had 61 percent of the vote and 34 percent of Democratic primary voters had selected "uncommitted."

That's amusing. Running uncontested and still getting swiped. You have to love that one.
