Caucus organizers set up special precincts on the Las Vegas Strip designed to make it easier for those union members who worked Saturday to cast their votes. And John Edwards, though trailing in the race for the nomination, threatened to siphon support away from Clinton because of his populist appeal to working class Democrats.

Odinga, after all, got 4.35 million votes in the election, and one mystery has been that so few of those who cast ballots for him have heeded his call for action. On Thursday, the police allowed only women to leave the Kibera slum, and any man who came too close was threatened with four-foot-long wooden sticks. Many were beaten...
