Updated: Iowa Caucus results called into question
Jan. 5, 2012 6:48 pm
The Republican Party of Iowa says it has no reason to doubt the accuracy of results it reported from the state's first-in-the-nation precinct caucuses despite a claim of an error that would change the outcome.
The final vote count reported Tuesday gave former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney an eight vote victory over former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum. The Iowa GOP reported Romney edged Santorum in a see-saw battle by 30,015 to 30,007.
Since then, however, a Moulton man has called those results into dispute.
Edward L. True has filed a notarized statement claiming Santorum is the real winner and that there was an error in the caucus results from Appanoose County.
