The Donnie McClurkin Effect?
Hillary Wins CA Gay Vote 2-1
As expected, yesterday's Super Tuesday primary did little to reveal a clear Democratic frontrunner. Hillary Clinton took eight states including the biggest: California and New York. Barack Obama took 13 states, including Illinois, his home state.
CLINTON: AR, AZ, CA, MA, NY, NJ, OK, TN
OBAMA: AK, AL, CT, CO, DE, GA, ID, IL, KS, MN, MO, ND, UT
Clinton's big win in California came via women, older voters, Latinos, and gays - who voted Hillary by more than a 2-1 margin there, taking 60% to Obama's 25%. I knew that Clinton would win the gays, but didn't anticipate such a huge margin.
It's still a horse race, 2025 delegates are needed to secure the nomination.
