The first results from Super Tuesday are in, and according to MSNBC Mike Huckabee is projected as the winner of the West Virginia Republican Party convention after having come in second in the first round of balloting to Mitt Romney (a majority was required for the convention to apportion its delegates, apparently).
Huckabee 52
Romney 47
Of course, we'll have more results as they come in...
Update [2008-2-5 14:30:34 by Jonathan Singer]: The AP has a story on the results, for those interested.
Update [2008-2-5 14:40:44 by Jonathan Singer]: According to Marc Ambinder, Romney won the first round of balloting 41 percent to 33 percent over Huckabee. But the McCain camp, who was at 16 percent, was apparently able to swing enough support to Huckabee to deny Romney the victory, and thus the delegates. Interesting stuff.
