Clinton 103,610 39%

3. Why are they showing these while the polls are still open?
MSNBC has them up on TV. They normally don't show this stuff til the polls close.

4. With the exit polls as close as they were
Assuming these are the early votes which would not be accounted for in the exit polls, Obama is going to take Texas by a good margin. The early voting is going to be well over a third of the overall vote Clinton would need to be leading by a good number in today's voting to win, which the exit polls do not suggest.

5. wow
132,000 lead. This has to be the early voters, it's way too fast to have 742,000 votes counted.

If the exit polls today show plus or minus 2 points TODAY, then these early votes will be the difference.

7. 750,000 Votes is 1%?
If that is true there will be 75 Million primary voters??

That can't be right. I know one thing for sure is that Texas may go a long way to getting back on my good side if they do the right thing tonight. Nice start.
