4. I think he won the Lake Tahoe vote too.

Except for Clark County, it's hard for me to detect a trend in the other counties. Obama didn't win ALL of them. But nothing stands out to me in the demographics that explains why Obama won some and Hillary won others.

5. Reno, Carson City, Elks, ect

rural areas. Now in November Obama would win LV as well becuz it's a dem stronghold, but Hillary hasn't demonstrated she can win independent or rural voters the way Obama can. That doesn't sound very promising.

7. That's the way it SHOULD be - we have the MOST PEOPLE!!!

Did you think that SPACE or DESERT should vote?

what a statement...and I'd say the same thing irregardless of who won...

9. Is this something new, the person with the most votes win?

8. This is the same argument the rethugs make

They win the vast majority of counties nationally but they lose badly in the big counties. They use this argument to claim they represent more of America.
