Washington (CNN) Minority voters are turning out in strong numbers to caucus in Nevada on Saturday, while a larger number of liberals were showing up than in 2008, according to early entrance poll results.

The early entrance polls reflect the views of the first few caucusgoers to arrive at each surveyed caucus site, and those arriving early aren't always similar to those who arrive at just before the doors close.
