Rick Santorum won the Louisiana Primary Saturday, CBS News and the Associated Press reported based on early results and exit polling information. 

Louisiana’s 20 delegates are far from enough for the former Pennsylvania senator to catch up to rival Mitt Romney. Going into Saturday’s primary, Romney had 563 delegates, USA Today reported. Santorum had 263. 

Santorum did well among the state’s evangelicals, Catholics and those who identified themselves as “very conservative,” CBS News reported.
