Real Clear Politics updates with Ohio's certified results: only an 8.7% win for Hillary
NOT 10.2% as originally reported.

Plus, according to RCP, no matter how ya slice it, Obama's got the popular vote lead, something that Wolfson and McAuliffe were claiming for Hillary on the Sunday Talk Shows.

Check it all out at:

Looking forward to Pennsylvania and Indiana's final certified results. Wouldn't be surprised if Pennsylvania tightens as much as Ohio did, and Indiana flips to Obama altogether.

9. You may be thinking of Pennsylvania where the spread was 9.2%
And again, Pennsylvania and Indiana are both counting provisional ballots and will certify final results over the next several weeks. Very possible that the 9.2% in Pennsylvania tightens.

Also possible that Indiana flips. According to RCP, Obama is short 14,500 votes. He picked up almost 25000 in Ohio, so a flip would not be outside the realm...

4. Hillary's single digit wins in OH and PA show how enelectable she is.

6. Someone posted the Indiana results

8. And it doesn't include the Rush Limbaugh effect
Before people claim that this is fictional, you should really read some analysis of the exit polls. Here was the biggest thing that stuck out for me. (don't have the link, but going by memory on the percentages) About 7% of the Hillary voters said that they would vote for McCain if it was Hillary vs. McCain in the fall election. The same number for Obama was about 1.8%. 7% is just way too high. These are people who voted for Hillary and just said outright that they wouldn't vote for her if she got the nomination, but would vote for McCain. That just doesn't make sense, and proves that Hillary had a lot of voters who are part of Operation Chaos or who just want to see Hillary continue to the fall so that McCain can beat her.
