Democratic primary result: An amazing tie - Only one winner, the Party

[Mass]

At this point, it seems that Hillary Clinton is a little bit ahead in popular vote (less than 1/2 of a %), in delegates, and that Obama won more states throughout the country, including a couple big ones, like MO, GA, and IL while Hillary won the two others NY, MA NJ, and CA.

She is ahead by about 6 in pledge delegates and by less than 100 (out of about 1600), in total delegates. (source: CNN).

Only one way to qualify that: a very close results, if not a tie.

Obama Clinton


Popular vote 7158480 7217669
% 49.79 50.21

But we have a winner, the Democratic Party, who got out more votes than the Republicans in every single state.

1. Either of our candidates will beat any of theirs

Unless they get swift boated or say and/or do something really stupid on their own.

2. I am I so happy!

I really do not understand the vitriol that some Obama/Hillary supporters have shown here. Folks, either way you look at it, WE WIN !

5. I totally agree.

3. In CO, the number of dems showing up was 9 times biggah. Whoa.

This according to someone on MSNBC, so could easily be wrong - but something big is up.
As Zogby said, this is a 1932 moment - one way or the other, we are at an historic fork in the road.

4. Clinton and Obama have to keep it mild for us to win

And keep the party unity. They need to act like they did in the last debate.

Otherwise McCain will be able to spend less money on his planned negative advertising.
