the press release pointed to a loophole in the way the since the state democratic party allows registration at the caucus, the college republicans figured that they could show up and register as democrats... caucus... then still caucus for their favorite republican candidate on tuesday since the change wouldn't show up in the voter rolls. ((dave courvoisier)) the memo added that this is not normal activity... but also not illegal and promised that no one would get arrested. the suggestion that republicans could make the difference in a race that's polling 48 to 47 in favor of clinton outraged democrats today. senator harry reid sent a statement condemning the idea... calling it voter fraud. we reached out to the secretary of state's office tonight and they're aware of the situation: (( wayne thorley/deputy secretary of elections: "we could potentially see registered voters who are flipping from one party to the other around the caucus time. now there is no prohibition in state law from switching parties frequently or at any time so that in itself is any indication of wrongdoinn" )) ((dave c

i think you can make a case with the dnc, the state democratic party has been pretty good. um, right now i would say if i was clinton's campaign, i would be well, she's moved up a little bit there. you know, the precincts that might be still outstanding are had ones that have such a huge surge in new voters so to work and have so many people that would be my concern that - - . >> let's move back to local 5's, uh, studio to get a check of the numbers with the anchors. >> sounds good. sabrina. let's refresh those numbers. let's start on the republican side where your local election headquarters has projected ted cruz as the winner of the 2016 iowa caucuses. 92 percent of the precincts reporting, 28 percent for ted cruz, followed by donald trump at 24 percent, and marco rubio at 23 percent about 1,200 votes separating those two candidates. and ben carson at 9 percent, rand paul 4 percent, jeb bush at 3% and we'll just let the rest f the field go after that. they're all lower than 3 percent. >> on the democratic side, see smg movement again here, as you might remember just befo

there's a lot of central control from washington on the democratic state parties. >> reporter: democrats require every state to award delegates proportionally, in a percentage that more or less reflects their primary vote total. they've long banned the "winner- take all" approach. republicans, by contrast, take a more "federalist" approach. >> the theory behind the republican delegate selection process is that each state has a great deal of authority and autonomy in choosing its own method. >> reporter: ben ginsberg is former general counsel of the republican national committee and was an election lawyer for the campaigns of george w. bush and mitt romney. he says this year's rules are a mixed bag of proportional and winner-take-all states. >> there is a period of proportionality, in this case it's the first 14 days in march, must be states dividing up their delegates proportionally. but other than that, the states can do it pretty much any way they want to. >> reporter: if you want to see just how critical such rules can be, look back to 2008. when republican john mccain won early winne

reporter: the state democratic party also won't award any delegates tuesday night, but it will do a straw poll, and enthusiasm is high. >> our phones are ringing off the hook. we've had to call in extra volunteers to try to tell people where the caucus location is. >> reporter: the poll itself, rather informal. people show up, divide into clinton or sanders groups and volunteers count them up. but because results are reported to the media, both democratic candidates have campaigned here, while we haven't seen the republicans yet. >> in the end, colorado's going general election that it's going to be crazy. >> that was shaun boyd reporting. the caucuses are the first of a four-step process in choosing a nominee. typically, only about 2 or 3% of either party attends them. there are two proposed ballot measures this year to establish an open primary in colorado, meaning unaffiliated voters could participate. >>> new video tonight shows a carnival cruise ship rescuing cuban migrants in the gulf of mexico. the ship came across the 16 migrants while cruising. pittsburgh steelers linebacker jame
