By: Darrell Prows February 2nd, 2008 @ 12:26 pm
Just for fun, another meaningless exercise on another routine Saturday morning. CNN runs a web site which holds itself out as a place where 2008 Presidential Primary results can be found in a variety of formats. I’m sure that inquiring minds want to know, so I simply applied my calculator to what I found there (candidates still in the race):
