Caucuses Exciting; Big Win for Obama

By Elizabeth Weiner
 
Pictures show Edwards precinct captain counting votes in the Democratic caucus of precinct 212 at Valley High School in West Des Moines.  The event was exciting to say the least.  Caucus-goers chanted as they encouraged supporters of non-viable candidates to join their group.  Obama's group took 3 delegates, Clinton's took 2, Edwards' took 2, and Richardson took 1.  Edwards started out with 1 and gained enough people in the 2nd alignment to pick up their 2nd delegate. 
 
Next door, Mitt Romney spoke at the Republican caucus for that district. 
 
The rest of the pictures are from the Obama victory party.
