Barack Obama leads Hillary Clinton 56-43% in the Wisconsin Primary, with 38% reporting, to win his 9th straight state contest. Later tonight, Washington state will report the results of their non-binding primary and Hawaii, Obama’s birthplace, will report the results of their caucus.
Obama polled strong among women and working-class voters, thought to be a stronghold of Clinton.
John McCain, meanwhile, secured a win in Wisconsin over Mike Huckabee to inch closer to the republican nomination.
Obama, speaking to a crowd in Houston, Texas said, “Houston, I think we’ve achieved lift-off here,” Obama told supporters in Texas. “The change we seek is still months and miles away and we need the good people of Texas to help us get there.” Texas holds its primary/caucus on Marh 4th along with Ohio.

The SC Exit polls have been posted.
It appears to me that McCain will finish first, followed by Huckabee. Huckabee seems to have suppor of those 44 years old and younger, which consists of 33% of the vote. Meanwhile, John McCain has support of those 45 and older which consists of 67% of the turnout.

very funny — awesome point by point on Mike Huckabee and his latest revelations about the confederate flag and bestiality. very well written and hysterical — “Grand Wizard Huckabee” lol.

As of 5:20 EST, it appears Clinton has withstood a Culinary Union endorsement of Barack Obama to get the Democratic win in Nevada. Romney handily defeated all Republican challengers with Ron Paul and John McCain battling for 2nd place. The results of 2nd and 3rd place should not effect the projected delegate count for Paul or McCain.
Democrats:

Clinton 5,229 51%
Obama 4,647 45%
Edwards 388 4%
Uncommitted 31 0%
Kucinich 4 0%
Richardson 0 0%
Republicans:
78%
