Obama Wins Maine

POSTED BY Raleigh-Elizabeth Smith, 10 February 2008

Rounding out a weekend full of upset in the Clinton camp, Barack Obama is winning today's Maine caucuses according to CNN:

With 95 percent of precincts reporting, Obama was leading Sen. Hillary Clinton of New York 59 percent to 40 percent. At stake are 24 delegates to August's Democratic national convention in Denver.

And this after taking Nebraska, Washington, and (the biggies) the US Virgin Islands. The new delegate tallies favor Obama in the primaries, but Clinton's still got a head's lead in super delegates... convention drama, here we come!
