SKY-HIGH TURNOUT: Clinton hails win in the West

Candidate also tops Obama at controversial Strip precincts

By MOLLY BALL
REVIEW-JOURNAL

A win in Saturday's Nevada caucuses gave presidential candidate Hillary Clinton a two-for-three record in Democratic nominating contests so far.

Clinton defeated Illinois Sen. Barack Obama by nearly 6 percentage points, getting 51 percent of precinct delegates to Obama's 45 percent, in a massive, all-out effort by both campaigns that defied even the most optimistic predictions for turnout in Nevada's first-time early caucuses.

Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards' campaign was dealt a severe blow with his showing of less than 4 percent.

"I guess this was how the West was won," a raspy-voiced Clinton told a crowd of supporters at the Planet Hollywood Resort on Saturday afternoon.
