Subject: RE: BS: Nevada Caucus Snafu
Let's just draw cards instead of voting.
One Las Vegas precinct tied, Clinton and Obama. The precinct leaders decided the winner by high card draws. Clinton won-
Obama- Ten of spades
Clinton- Queen of hearts.

Now they could have just drawn for high card before the vote- save all the expense and trouble of holding a vote. An ideal solution for a state where the money comes from gambling and tourists.

Nevada, 2006 census
Urban population- 2, 233, 388
Rural population-    262, 141
10% of the population in farm-related jobs, half of these in urban areas. As I said, difficult to define rural, a very small group.
