Thought it might be easier to have 1 thread for the election results rather than separate threads for each one......

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - Mike Huckabee won the first contest declared on Super Tuesday, picking up all 18 national delegates awarded at West Virginia's state GOP convention.
McCain wins New Jersey, Illnois, and Connecticut.;
Romney wins Mass
Obama wins Ill.; Georgia
Clinton wins Okla.
I LOVE THIS NIGHT!!!!!! Its the second best night to the Presidential race on Nov 7th! I'll be up all night! Obama is showing a strong showing in C.T and NJ! He wasn't expected to have this kind of showing in either of those states. The people are speaking up! I LOVE IT!
Clinton: Arkansas, MA, OK, TN, New York, New Jersey
Obama: Delaware, Georgia, Illnois
Huckabee - Arkansas, West Virginia, Huckabee
McCain - Connecticut, Delaware, Illnois, New Jersey, New York
ROMNEY - Massachusetts
McCain & Clinton are doing very well
(Clinton, Huckabee, & Romney won their home states, it is really close for McCain in Arizona)
Clinton: Arkansas, Massachusetts, Montana, New York, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Tennessee
Obama: Alabana, Massachusetts, Delware, Georgia, Idaho, Illnois, Kansas, Minnesota,
North Dakota, Utah
Huckabee: Alabana, Arkansas, Georgia, Montana, Tennessee, West Virginia
McCain: Connecticut, Delaware, Illnois, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma
Romney: Massachusetts, North Dakota, Utah
Keep in mind that these races aren't winner-take-all...winning a state with 60% of the vote is measurably better than winning with 51% of the vote...
Every State is different, different rules for the Republicans & Democrats, & some are winner take all :wink:Quote:

Still a close fight between Clinton & Obama, & both Romney & Huckabee are within striking distance of McCain, but, as long as they both remain in the race, they are draining votes from each other...
Don't be so hasty, find out why people voted the way they did. Was it a Pro-Clinton vote or an Anti-Obama vote?????Quote:

Dems
-Clinton: 825
-Obama: 732
Reps
-McCain: 615
-Romney: 268
-Huckabee: 169
I'm optimistic that Obama will eventually catch up with Clinton. I agree with what a reporter said yesterday night on CNN - it seems the more familiar people get with Obama, the more likely they are to vote him over another candidate. EXCITING! :D

It's interesting how Clinton is winning states by small margins (less than 60% everywhere except Arkansas), but when Obama wins, he wins big.
It's also interesting how Obama is kicking the crap out of Clinton in red states...
Not surprising, people are waking up to the fact that he has a message and vision for this country unlike Clinton who is simple the same old deal. The next few weeks will be interesting on the Dem side. Clinton and Obama will have to make very careful moves over the next few weeks in order to secure their place on the Nov ticket. I would however like Edwards to throw his support behind Obama.Quote:

That's why I voted for Huck. ;)
I wish there was more time before the primaries so more peopel can wake up to Obama.

Well most Americans do think he is the most down to earth "regular" guy. This photo proves that....his family is as fat as the average American...good god that boy in the back is a porker...
Oh Huckabee is a nice guy, it is the religious stuff that makes me uncomfortable.....Quote:
