With Washington out it's down to Boone and Ewiak with Boone having strong momentum going into Super Tuesday.
AGSN NEWS alert - DETROIT, MI
With the sudden departure of Thad Washington from the Democratic race tonight's contests came down to the last two men standing: Alex Boone and Jesse Ewiak. With all the votes counted Alex Boone has secured victory in two of the states, including the ever critical Michigan, dealing a harsh blow to the Ewiak camp.
OFFICAL RESULTS:
ARIZONA:
Alex Boone - 274,959 VOTES - 65.21% (PROJECTED WINNER)
Jesse Ewiak - 146,676 VOTES - 34.79%
We can project that Boone will take 44 delegates and Ewiak will take 23 delegates.
MINNESOTA:
Jesse Ewiak - 132,043 VOTES - 65.35% (PROJECTED WINNER)
Alex Boone - 70,023 VOTES - 34.65%
We can project aht Ewiak will take 57 delegates and Boone will take 31 delegates.
MICHIGAN:
Alex Boone - 357,977 VOTES - 52.70% (PROJECTED WINNER)
Jesse Ewiak - 321,242 VOTES - 47.30%
We can project that Boone will take 83 delegates and Ewiak will take 74 delegates.
"In the end" says Anna "Ewiak did not contest Arizona and Boone did not contest Minnesota so the big wins there are not odd. Michigan was the true battleground and Boone managed to win by 5%. His 14 million in ad buys countered Ewiak’s 11 million in not only amount spent, but amount aired. Every single ad done by Boone aired or was in Michigan and many showed his strongest union credentials to date. He bet the bank on this one and it paid off. He also got a few subtle jabs in at Ewiak. Ewiak fought every way he could and should have but Boone rolling out the massive ad buy and his surrogate advantage and heavy focus on Michigan carried him to victory.
Both candidates have some thinking to do. Ewiak must decide if he has the drive and staying power to go though Super Tuesday. Boone must decide how he will capitalize on his wins and carry his large momentum into the Super Tuesday. Then there is the wildcard: Thad Washington. Who, if anyone, will he endorse?
We can surely expect some big news to come out soon and, perhaps, even a Democratic nominee will finally emerge."
