(Updated) NM Dem Caucus: All Unofficial Results Except Provisionals

UPDATE 2/14/08: See the final numbers released by the Democratic Party of New Mexico, including all ballots including provisionals.
***********
Yesterday, the Chairman of the Democratic Party of New Mexico Brian S. Colón announced that the final totals for the regular and absentee ballots. See below the fold for the tallies.

“Today’s canvass results for regular and absentee ballots provide hard evidence that New Mexico Democrats are ready for change in the White House,” said Chairman Colón.  “From ending the war in Iraq to providing solutions on health care and education, these two candidates have energized Democrats in every part of our state.  With an official turnout of 54% more than the last caucus, the 2008 Democratic Caucus turnout was absolutely unprecedented.”

In this year’s Democratic Caucus, a total of 157,354 cast an absentee, regular or provisional ballot for a Democratic Presidential candidate. Whereas, according to final tallies from the Democratic Party approximately 102,100 Democrats voted in the 2004 Caucus.

“These canvass results also confirm the regular results from election night, and the quality of the work done by volunteers in the middle of an unprecedented turnout,” said Chairman Brian Colón.  “Each of these votes have been scanned into a computer, tabulated and where there was an undetermined vote, members of both campaigns and a caucus judge reviewed the result—and I appreciate their commitment to accuracy and fairness.”

The provisional ballots are still being qualified. Approximately 7,000 out of more than 17,200 provisional ballots have been qualified so far. Volunteers are conducting a second search of the voter file to assure every registered vote counts.

17,276 Provisional Ballots are currently in the process of being qualified and scanned. Counting of the provisional ballots is began today and is expected to be finished late today or sometime tomorrow.
