Romney wins all Arizona Delegates, Splits Michigan's with Santorum

The Jan Brewer endorsement of Romney may have played a part in Romney's win in Arizona, but Romney won Arizona's 29 delegates with 47% over 27% for Santorum with 81% of the districts reporting.

In Michigan the race was much closer.  Though Romney edged out a 41% to 38% win over Santorum with 94% of the districts reporting, if the final tally remains similar the number of delegates will be split evenly at five per candidate.  Looking at the number of counties won, Santorum beat Romney.  The population centers, as usual, went towards Romney.

Though the wins are a boost for Romney, there has got to be concern over the fact that Romney was unable to win easily in Michigan, the State he was born in.
