Obama just won more delegates from IL

[ossman]

Illinois U.S. Senator Barack Obama officially picked up two more delegates today in his bid for the White House. They were awarded to him after the Illinois Board of Elections recalculated the delegates assigned after the state's primary <...>

Clinton lost the delegates because she didn't receive the required 15 percent of the vote in two South Side congressional districts. The Clinton campaign did not immediately respond to our calls for comment.

9. More than that....

if I'm reading correctly, clinton got +4 unassigned delegates in colorado while obama appears to have gained +4 net delegates (gaining two while clinton lost two) although clinton also gained 1 delegate (not sure if it's net or not) in new york as well

South Side of Chicago is where he was a state senator...I guess they still love him there, if she couldn't even get 15%.
