ROMNEY WINS FIRST CONTEST, THOMPSON TAKES SECOND IN LOW KEY WYOMING GOP CAUCUS.

Wyoming became the second state to hold a caucus in as many days Saturday, when the less-populated Rocky Mountain state's Republicans voted for their choice to represent them in the Presidential race.

The "Cowboy State" chose to go with Mitt Romney, giving him eight of the state's 12 delegates allotted. The total was more than halved because of the state bumping up its caucus time to before the New Hampshire primary. Fred Thompson won three delegates, and Duncan Hunter came up with the last delegate. Wyoming's results go by delegates and not by popular vote.

Now it's on to New Hampshire, where the primary is being held today.
