Gov. Mike Huckabee has won the West Virginia Caucus, but only after a dirty trick from the McCain campaign.  After the first round of voting, Gov. Mitt Romney lead the vote.  Sen. John McCain was in a distant third.  His campaign made the decision to release his boosters to vote for Gov. Huckabee in the second round of voting, thus ensuring a Huckabee win.  On the first ballot, McCain had 176 votes to Huckabee’s 375 and Romney’s 464 votes. Make no bones about it, a vote for Huckabee, at this stage in the race, is a vote for John McCain.

Gov. Huckabee wins with 52% of the vote.  Gov. Romney places second with 47% of the vote and Sen. McCain after his dirty trick gets 1% of the vote.
