Question: Was the turnout in Nevada for Dems high, low or about normal?

The reason I ask is the numbers that MSNBC had next to Clinton and Sanders added up to only about 11,000. The precinct may be only half in, so that may mean a total of 20,000 or so total.

Were the numbers next to Sanders & Clintons name total caucus attendees for them? If so, it seems to me that is a very low number. But I have no clue.

Iowa and Nevada are fairly close in population. Iowa turned out 170,000. A low number in Nevada seems ominous for November.
