1. crap!!

[John Q. Citizen]

5. It won't matter one way or the other in terms of delegates. But it would be nice for the effect.

[Quixote1818]

2. Wow, Richardson was quite effective in that down time. nt

[scheming daemons]

3. That's ok... that probably means a 13-13 split in delegates....

....a wash.

[Recursion]

4. Less than 50% of precincts reporting

Per CBS, just now, same lead you're reporting
87 of 184 precincts reporting

[UALRBSofL]

8. The best effect

was that Clinton won california and New York. I think she couldn't have asked for better wins for PR purposes. The other headline we will be seeing tomorrow is she was able to defeat Camelot. That will be a front page headline in the MSM.

6. YIKES! Recount?

I can't believe Obama is doing so strongly in Richardson's state. I thought for sure it would go for Clinton.

[Herman Munster]

7. it's a caucus I think

Obama does better in caucuses but they are not democratic like a primary is.

[JI7]

9. Hillary won the Nevada Caucus

18. Obama was on par with Hill in NM even last year, as was Edwards btw

It is surprising Obama's surge nationally didn't apply to New Mexico. I guess most of Richardon's support there went to Hillary. He had about 1/3 support there which was the most.

[Recursion]

10. 100 of 184 precints reporting: Obama down by 1300

Still don't know where you got the "98% counted" number?

[Colobo]

11. Go to the link in the OP.

[Recursion]

12. I have; it contradicts CBS, NPR, CNN, and AP

They're saying just over 50% counted

[alcibiades_mystery]

13. The OP likely just made it up

Not uncommon these days.

[angie_love]

14. Ummm are you kidding me? How childish of you

http://www.krqe.com/ THats the link you little baby.

[alcibiades_mystery]

15. You're sweet

:*

[Recursion]

17. CNN, CBS, AP, and NPR all show it at 54% reporting

I think KRQE has it wrong

[MadBadger]

19. No, the others are just slow.

[Recursion]

20. But KRQE shows the same vote count

Unless the remaining precincts has 0 votes, they got the precinct reporting % wrong

[MadBadger]

21. Read the blurb on the bottom about a 4 polling places yet to be counted

They also need to count 16,000 provisional ballots.

[ursi]

16. No wonder Richardson didn't announce an endorsement ...he had work to do first

[rodeodance]

22. No futher updates from the New Mexico Democratic Party until after 9:00 a.m.

Voting summary, as of 1:15 a.m.
The New Mexico Democratic caucus results are not yet complete. No futher updates from the New Mexico Democratic Party until after 9:00 a.m. Wednesday mornign. The outcome of the battle between Senator Hillary Clinton and Senator Barack Obama likely won't be known until late Wednesday morning.

[MidwestTransplant]

23. This is as close as the 04 GE there.

[Maven]

24. There are still thousands of provisional ballots to be counted

Probably no conclusive result until tomorrow morning.

[stevenleser]

25. Then there should be a recount, exit polls have it completely different

Exit polls show Hillary and Obama splitting the women's vote equally and Obama with a large victory among men.
