Just saw that Obama has a 50%-48% lead with 11% reporting. Based on what I'm reading at Daily Kos, Obama is winning big in the cities (Portland area, Bangor area) and is winning by smaller margins in the more rural areas.

Also just saw that Hillary's campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle has been FIRED! She is being replaced by Maggie Williams.

If he is winning big in cities and winning by smaller margins in more rural area's; it cannot be a 50%-48% lead.  Something doesn't track with what you're hearing and the numbers

If it is indeed 50-48, I will interpret TheresNoMoney's response without the spin:

Obama is winning a good amount in the cities but losing to Clinton in the rural areas.

Stonington to Obama, 3-1, Scarborough goes 31-22. (Those are delegates.) Stonington's an artsy coastal town in Down East. Scarborough is a Portland "suburb".

50-48 is the CNN entrance poll, apparently, not the results so far. CBS's entrance poll says 51-48 Obama.

Is there a decent source for comment or results from ME this evening?


Not that I know of. I guess the lovely Nora won't be reading results this evening *Sigh*

Winterport and Ellsworth are the only ones of those that I haven't covered here yet (and LOL at only one vote in Byron). Looks like Obama is very strong in Down East.

Link? I don't think any official results will be reported until the last caucuses end at 8:00 PM EST.

I think the 50%-48% you saw is an entrance poll.

Except a single huge Obama victory in a Bangor precinct. Although the cities will split; Bangor, Augusta and Portland should be strong for Obama, but Lewiston will be Clinton territory, and maybe Biddeford will be as well.

Kucinich won a delegate in Phillips (1-1-1). I think. Could be someone else, I suppose, given the location. Maybe Edwards.

Humorous prediction: If Clinton wins this, her campaign slogan becomes "Remember the Maine".

The 50-48% or 51-48% is *not* just an entrance poll.  It's actual results so far.  See here for example:

http://election.cbsnews.com/campaign2008/state.shtml?state=ME

Those look like real vote totals to me (or state delegate equivalents or whatever), not entrance poll numbers.

Yay, Obama won Damariscotta (102-36)! That's where we used to vacation when I was little. It's sort of Mid-Coast but the town itself (as opposed to the inland areas where we stayed) is more like Down East.

Edit: And Newcastle as well, Damariscotta's twin. (Maine has a lot of those, two towns of similar sizes each on opposite sides of a river or narrow bay.)

Not yet, but given the York results I would be pretty shocked if Clinton won Ogunquit.

Bangor delegate count is apparently 64-27 with one Uncommitted. Big margin for Obama in an expected stronghold.

Obama got 15 of the 25 delegates in Old Town (larger town just north of Bangor/Orono).

Apparently those Bangor results are only part of the city. So we'll wait.
