KRMG Radio Calls Oklahoma for Santorum in Two Minutes

Yes, Sooner fans, Rick Santorum has won Oklahoma's presidential primary. Whoo!

How do we know? KRMG told us so—a whopping two minutes after the polls closed. 

The votes weren't tallied then, of course, but that didn't stop the pollsters from making their exit poll predictions.

They were right, of course, but we found it curious that KRMG cited no numbers whatsoever when they made their 7:02 prediction. No percentages of precincts reporting, no raw vote tallies, no nothing. Only a Fox News report calling the state for Saint Rick of Pennsylvania.

On wait, that explains it. The 7:02 report came from Fox News, home of free-floating "facts" that—flip a coin!—may or may not be true.

Ah, KRMG. I grow nostalgic when I think of he fun I had live-blogging the Obama win here while participating on the KRMG website: at-predicts-short-night-big-obama-win.html
