With roughly an hour until the poll results are released, the crowds in the camps outside are starting to thin as everybody moves back into the coliseaum. Inside the Tancredo tent, one of the last couples remaining is Gene and Betsy Momiz from Oakland, Iowa. Both cast ballots for Tancredo earlier in the day, and remain optimistic about his chances.

"Obviously Mitt has spent a lot more money, but we really like what Tancredo stands for,"said Gene. "I've seen him on C-SPAN several times, and having seen him in person a few times now, I believe he is the most well rounded candidate in the field. We really think he has a good chance at second place."
