• In Virginia, only Romney and Paul were on the ballot. Romney wins 60% to 40%.
  
• Romney won big with 62% of the vote in Idaho thanks in part to its large Mormon population.
  
• Romney also wins in the Alaska caucus. In Wasilla, Palin refused to say who she voted for, but said she would be available in case of a brokered convention.
  
• CNN is now calling Ohio . Romney squeaks by Santorum 453,927 to 441,908.
  
• Rick Santorum shows a solid hold of the center of the country with wins in North Dakota, Oklahoma and Tennessee.
  
• Gingrich wins his home state of Georgia.
  
• Over the next week, there will be elections in four states and four territories. Santorum is favored in the Kansas Caucus this Saturday. On Tuesday, Gingrich has a good chance to win the primaries in Alabama and Mississippi. Intrade favors Romney to win the Hawaii Caucus. I have not yet seen any polling for  the caucuses in US territories: Guam, American Samoa, the Virgin Islands and the Northern Marianas Islands.
