Rick Santorum
Rick Santorum has won Minnesota's Republican caucuses and the Missouri primary.
Returns show Santorum with a double-digit lead in Minnesota over Ron Paul. Mitt Romney is running third and Newt Gingrich is far behind.
The Missouri win is a feather in Santorum's cap, but there were no delegates at stake. They'll be chosen next month in caucuses.
Colorado Republicans held caucuses today as well. Doors closed at 9 p.m. EST. The 70 delegates at stake in the two states combined are the biggest one-day total so far in the GOP race to name an opponent for President Barack Obama.
