State Winner Roundup

Here are the projected states won by each of the candidates running in Super Tuesday:

DEMOCRATS:

Sen Hillary Rodham Clinton: New Jersey, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Massachusetts, Arkansas, New York
Sen. Barack Obama: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Delaware
Races in Georgia, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee too close to call

REPUBLICANS
Sen. John McCain: New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Connecticut, Delaware
Gov. Mitt Romney: Massachusetts, Utah
Gov. Mike Huckabee: Alabama, Arkansas, West Virginia
Races in Georgia, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Tennessee too close to call

Looking at these results to date, as one writer put it, the surprise is that there are no surprises. The only real surprise may be a Sen. Obama victory in Connecticut if that holds up.

Gov. Romney needs to win a big state, either Missouri or California, to still have a chance in the race.

Senators Clinton and Obama are trading states back and forth with perhaps Sen. Clinton having an edge winning big states like New York and New Jersey; Sen. Obama winning the big state of Illinois helps him but he has won much smaller states; the delegate count between them is close. Several states remain to be decided, including California, so we are all waiting for that one.
