Super Tuesday Returns: Clinton, McCain Win NY
As of 11:45 p.m., Hillary Clinton and John McCain are projected to win their New York primaries. The Democratic primary distributes NY delegates proportionally, so the final total will be important in determining how many will go to Clinton and how many to Barack Obama.
McCain also did well in the Northeast, winning the whole tri-state area, while Mike Huckabee has been strong in the South. Mitt Romney has won Massachusetts, plus some in the Midwest and Mountain region.
Here are the candidates and the states they are projected to win:
Hillary Clinton: Arkansas, Arizona, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Tennessee
Barack Obama: Alabama, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Idaho, Illinois, Minnesota, North Dakota, Utah
Mike Huckabee: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, West Virginia
John McCain: Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma
Mitt Romney: Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Utah
As of 11:30PM, California, which has the most delegates up for grabs for both party (the Democratic delegates are doled out proportionally) is too close to call. Some good resources are:
- CNN's Election Center 2008
- MSNBC's FAQ on the election process
- The NY Times' Election Guide
- You can set a tracker to let you know about certain states' on ABC News
- And WNBC has a live chat online, plus a local look at what's happening on its digital channel 4.4. (channels) and a nice interactive map.

Clinton easily won California. I told you all the exit polling is faulty because alot of the people polled who say they are voting for obama are lying! They don't want to be perceived as racist so they say they are gonna vote for him but don't. all this Obama has 47% and Clinton has 46% is stupid. Never underestimate the power of white guilt in an exit poll.
This Google Maps/Twitter/election results mashup is pretty awesome.

who won california?
the worst.
it's interesting that Obama won most of all the redneck states. the few democrats in those republican rich states would rather vote for obama than clinton. I feel an Mccain win coming on cause obama and clinton will cancel each other out.
babyh, mccain isn't going to be running against both of them in the general election so there's nothing to cancel out.
