Mormons Turn Out for Romney in Nevada

[_the road to hana]

The news outlets are reporting that Mitt Romney was put over the top in the Nevada caucuses today by a heavy turnout of Mormon voters, who make up approximately 7% of the population in that state but were over 20% of those voting in today's caucuses.

Apparently, a third of those had household incomes of over $100,000.

The point being (this ought to be good)?

I didn't make it. It was made on MSNBC by Chuck Todd, NBC Political Director. You'll have to ask him.

In 2006 19% of households had incomes over $100,000.

With the LDS emphasis on working, achieving, education, gainful employment, etc. it could be expected that LDS have a higher income per household. So where' s the beef.

Huckabee benefits from EV and Mitt from Mormons. Mitt still got 55% and that cannot be due to Mormons only.

So where' s the beef.

Ask Coggins.

I don't think there was a beef, particularly, Charity. I think that the MSNBC reporter was making the point that a lot of the people who voted for Romney were in his same demographic.

It's a long ways between $100,000 per household to a multimillionaire. At least from my point of view.

South Carolina will change the delegate count. Mitt is not leading there as I understand it. That should be a hotbed for evangelical politicos.

I doubt they broke down any income categories over $100,000.

Yes, exactly what I suspected. DNCNBC would make that kind of observation. I wonder why it matters to them?
