"The Queen" Wins

So who won the Nevada caucus? I sure don't know, and I don't think anyone else really does either.

I find it interesting, and very appropriate, as to how one precinct decided to split its delegates between Barak Obama and Hillary Clinton. It all came down to a 10 of Spades and the Queen of Hearts.

There was a tie in the vote, 48 for Obama and 48 for Clinton. What do they do? There are 5 delegates, and everyone knows, people don't like to be split in half!! Well, they're in North Las Vegas, Nevada, so what do you think they do? They pull out the deck of cards!! Shuffling occurs, the Clinton supporter pulls a 10 of Spades, the Obama supporter pulls the Queen of Hearts, and it's over. Clinton gets the third delegate!

Haha! Who said politics wasn't just some big game, lasting way longer than any round of Monopoly?
