Super Tuesday 101: Who’s ahead where

Ten states are holding presidential primaries or caucuses Tuesday – and many Republicans are hoping the results begin to bring an unusually volatile primary season to a close.

Here’s what to look for Tuesday night, state by state:

8. North Dakota, 28 delegates

Another caucus state with no polling data to rely on.

Despite the lack of attention on the state, this is where Paul plans to spend election day, campaigning in Fargo. The reason: it’s his best chance at a win. (The caucuses are also open to all voters, regardless of political affiliation.)

Really, though, this is a tossup, and Santorum, Romney, and Paul could all perform relatively well here. Santorum did well in neighboring Minnesota, and Romney made a recent campaign visit. Delegates are awarded proportionally.
