Romney beats McCain in Michigan primary

Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney won the Michigan Republican primaries, beating out forerunner Senator John McCain of Arizona.

According to an article in The New York Times:

"Promising to revitalize the distressed automobile industry, Mr. Romney defeated his principal rival, Senator John McCain of Arizona, by winning a clear plurality of Republicans and conservatives, who turned out in greater numbers than they had in the 2000 primary, which Mr. McCain won."

This goes to show that voter turn out really can make a difference. Virginia primaries are on Feb. 12, so make sure to make it out to the polls. Let me know what you think of Romney and the presidential primaries by leaving me a comment below.
