Any link for CNN actual results.

Linking to the CNN web site for states doesn't work...but it's not hard to find if you go on there.

"Correction: Exit polls show Obama leading Clinton in Mississippi. CNN has not projected this race."  -CNN.com

[Alcon]

CNN exit poll, finally:

Obama 58.7%
Clinton 40.7%

[Stranger in a strange land]

MSNBC:
Blacks 91-9 Obama
Whites 75-22 Clinton

[Eraserhead]

Fox News said their poll has it 61%-39%.

[Sam Spade]

Well, the Republican poll is loading. McCain wins with 76% or so of the vote, with Huck at 15% and Paul at 8%.

Dang, I figured there were more Republicans pissed off at McCain.

Why?

Dates work, state links normally don't: http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/dates/index.html#20080311

Folks, they're probably just waiting for some actual results to call it - to make sure things aren't too off.

The real question of the evening will be - who will win CD-01, CD-03, CD-04...

[Meeker]

FYI, Carson leads in IN-07 53-45 with 18% in

[Alcon]

Other notable facts:

- Among the 2/3 (!) of voters who say campaign ads were important, Obama won 64%-35%.  Clinton won the "no" group with over 60%.

- 56% say that Obama should pick Clinton as VP, and they voted more strongly for Obama than the "no" group, although both voted for him solidly.

- Clear plan for presidency: Clinton 55%, Obama 62%.

- Education levels didn't matter.  All were pretty much even.

- Among those who said gender of candidate was important, Obama did much better.  (Sexism hooray!)

- Clinton won conservative voters.

[Stranger in a strange land]

MSNBC just called it for Obama.

[agcatter]

11% of primary voters Republican

Clinton wins them 83-17.  That's something different.

[Alcon]

- Blacks and whites, 49-49%
- Obama carries Democrats 2-to-1, independents narrowly, and Clinton carries Republicans 3-to-1

[John Dibble]

11% of primary voters Republican

Clinton wins them 83-17.  That's something different.

Probably a fair number of tactical voters.

It's Mississippi - Obama's black.  You know...

Also, the John McCain favorable's are funny too.

[Eraserhead]

Yeah, Clinton cleaned up among Republicans here. Break out the white hoods.

[Sam Spade]

Was race of candidate important to you?

Yes (30%) Clinton 38%, Obama 62%
No (67%) Clinton 42%, Obama 57%

Liars.

[agcatter]

Yeah, as opposed to the 91% of blacks that voted for the black guy.  Enlightened progressives I guess as opposed to the whites who voted for the white candidate.  They of course are white supremists.

I love libs.

[Alcon]

CNN projects Mississippi for Obama.

Apparently they decided they have no need for vote totals.

[Meeker]

The BEST political team on television has no use for your silly "vote totals"

[ottermax]

75% of Republicans in the Dem primary voted for Clinton... they really want her to be the nominee.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

75% of Republicans in the Dem primary voted for Clinton... they really want her to be the nominee.

Probably more to do with the suspiciously dark tan of the other candidate.

[Frodo]

75% of Republicans in the Dem primary voted for Clinton... they really want her to be the nominee.

No, they just want to have this fight between Clinton and Obama dragged out for as long as humanly possible, leaving whoever becomes the winner battered and fatigued by the time of the convention.  This is, of course, assuming Democrats decide upon a nominee before then.
