Obama Wins Mississippi
Now with over 99% of the ballots counted, it's official: Barack Obama wins the Mississippi Democratic Primary!
Here are some of the results that count:
- Male Voters:
- Obama - 61%
- Clinton - 38%
- Female Voters:
- Obama - 58%
- Clinton - 39%
- Black Voters:
- Obama - 92%
- Clinton - 8%
- White Voters:
- Obama - 26%
- Clinton - 70%
- Aged 17-64:
- Obama - 63%
- Clinton - 35%
- Aged 55+:
- Obama - 43%
- Clinton - 55%
- Income < $50,000:
- Obama - 66%
- Clinton - 31%
- Income > $50,000:
- Obama - 52%
- Clinton - 45%
Just from these numbers (from the MSNBC Polls), I think it's evident that there's a definite racial gap in Mississippi, but it looks like Clinton's losing her grasp on the female, the rich, and the old voters who swung more toward Obama in the last two contests than ever before.
Also, he pulled away by another 17 or so delegates last night...
...and sealed up his 30th win!
