Barack Obama Primary And Caucus Results

Barack Obama did well yesterday, although was not able to overtake Hillary Clinton. Obama actually won more states overall, but Clinton was able to capture the larger states and thus more delegates. The Democrats have three more contests this weekend and it is likely that no nominee will be declared soon. Either one of these candidates could end up with the Democratic nomination. See how Obama did state by state in the breakdown below (Delegates earned in parentheses):
