    Santorum wins Alabama

    Mar 13, 2012

    Live blog: Santorum wins Alabama

    By Catalina Camia, USA TODAY Updated <1m ago

    Live blogging the results from tonight's GOP presidential primaries in Alabama and Mississippi.

    The few statewide polls available show a tight race in both states among Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Ron Paul lags well behind and hasn't really been competing in the two states.

    Scroll down for highlights:

    10:18 p.m. ET:

    AP makes it official: Santorum wins Alabama.

    10:16 p.m. ET

    CNN, The New York Times, The Washington Post and Fox News are also projecting an Alabama win for Santorum.

    10:05 p.m. ET

    AP has called some congressional primary races in Mississippi. Sen. Roger Wicker easily won his GOP primary, while Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson defeated Greenville Mayor Heather McTeer.

    9:58 p.m. ET

    The votes in the Deep South are too close to call, but the Obama campaign is focused on Romney. In an e-mail fundraising pitch, Obama campaign manager Jim Messina makes the argument that the fall campaign will be "tighter than you think."

    "If the idea of a President Romney scares you, it's time to own a piece of this campaign," Messina writes, as he asks for a donation of $3 or more.

    9:53 p.m. ET

    NBC News is projecting Santorum will win the Alabama primary.

    9:33 p.m. ET

    Where are the candidates? Santorum is in Lafayette, La., where he's already campaigning for the Bayou State primary next week. USA TODAY's Rick Jervis is with Santorum tonight.

    STORY: Battle for Louisiana

    9:30 p.m. ET

    Earlier this evening, the Gingrich campaign released a strategy memo about the candidate's strategy at "halftime." They argue that the half-way mark is the Louisiana primary on March 24.

    "The sequencing and pace of the second half favors Newt," write Randy Evans, a senior Gingrich adviser, and Martin Baker, the national political director.

    The memo discusses upcoming primaries in Southern states, as well as contests in delegate-rich states such as Texas and California.

    "Here is the bottom-line reality: this nomination will not be decided until the fourth quarter – and that is not until June. It also means that the candidate who closes strongest in this race is going to win."
