We skipped Super Tuesday because it's too hard to tabulate and will skip tomorrow and Tuesday's caucuses as they're non-binding. Round 10 - the final round - is Puerto Rico. If a tie results, a bonus round will be held. PR is winner-take-all so only one prediction need be submitted.
ROUND 10 Date: March 18 Format: Primary Delegates at Stake: 20 Population: 3,700,000 Languages: Spanish 96%, English 4% Land Area: 9,000 sq. km.

ol' Saxi is going out on a limb and predicting a Romney last place here ... I think it's going to come down to language and religion - only Paul speaks Spanish and only Santorum is Catholic, so Saxi guesses -
SANTORUM narrowly

It's a tough call, but I'm going to go with:
1. Mitt Romney 2. Rick Santorum 3. Ron Paul
Yes, Santorum is Catholic, but when he makes comments about Spanish & English which could be viewed negatively by Puerto Ricans, his chances go down majorly. Additionally, Romney has been endorsed by the governor which probably gave him a nice boost in local popularity. I understand Ron Paul has spent a good chunk of change there, but it's going to be tough for him to move out of 3rd place and I'm not sure that Gringrich will even factor into the equation.

Mitt Romney, definitely. Santorum can't get away with "You gotta speaky da ingles."

Hey thanks for the premium, Uncle Saxi! I'm quite busy with my engineering finals atm but I'm hoping to make use of it and get some games going once things slow down a bit. That was a fun contest! Btw I find it pretty funny that Canadians ended up taking 1st, 2nd (BVP, although tied with GreecePWNS), and 3rd (yourself) in this contest for predicting how Americans will vote lol
