Romney Gets Republican Nod

Romney will win the Republican nomination. So far, 582 delegates (25% of the 2,286 total) have been awarded. Romney has won 331, or 57%, while Santorum has picked up 139, or 24%. With 1,704 delegates left to award, Santorum must win 59% of the remaining delegates, more than 2.5 times his current success rate. By contrast, Romney must win just 48% of the remaining delegates. Easy breezy.
