Don't get your hopes up. This isn't definitive by any means.
From Drudge, exit polling results:
Duuuuuuuude....
This is matched over at OpenLeft. So it's not just drudge making them up.

And that includes, it looks like now, 46% of white males for Obama!
According to the CNN exit poll, Obama got 69 % of the male vote and 64% of the female vote and 39% of the white vote. By region, Atlanta 77%, Atlanta Suburbs 74%, Central Georgia 67%, Southern Georgia 64%.
oh my goodness...
waiting for confirmation of this stuff before I allow myself to get het up though...
if this all does come to pass, I wonder if the old cell phone theory is finally coming true? I remember that from 2004... the idea that a certain kind of voter uses a landline, and that polls are conducted on landlines.
anyway
sooooooo getting ahead of myself.
What's going on with Illinois??
Romney gets Mass not a surprise
Illinois - Obama projected to win.
Oklahoma - Clinon projected to win.
NO others called when the polls closed. Good news for Obama.

That's what it was. I saw "Illinois" and "split" and didn't know what they meant. They were talking about Illinois for Obama, OK for Hillary, so they split those two.
They'll adjust those GA polls to the actual results. The exit polls in SC had Obama at 70%.
Connecticut fo McCain
Illinois for McCain
Massachusetts for Romney
Illinois for Obama
Oklahoma for Hillary
No surprises there..
I'm having a hard time believing that for the first time in almost 30 years of voting, the candidate I voted for might actually win the nomination.
Somebody pinch me so I'll know I'm not dreaming....
NPR just projected Clinton will win Oklahoma.
nimh, do you remember what polls were predicting for OK? I'm blank on that one, and it'd take me hours to try to find it back on this thread. :-)
MSNBC is saying that Massachusetts for Romney has some meaning because McCain made a bold play there and that was slapped down.
Huckabee now has the lead in Georgia.

Not really. I jotted down the data from the South Carolina exit polls here
just half an hour after the polls closed, and he had 55%. I dont think it was ever anywhere near 70%.
MSNBC sez the national hispanic split in exit polls is 60-40 Clinton over Obama.
That's not great for Obama but it's a long way from being doubled up on as we saw in many earlier polls.

None of the other east coast states have their vote counts live on the SOS sites except for Conneticut and they haven't started showing results yet. Latest actual results from Georgia:

Amazing how they can predict that via exit polls when half the polls haven't even closed in the South/West and voters are just now getting off work to go vote.

I don't know if it's the same poll, but what they were showing on CNN when they called it (before the votes were even actually counted) was 70% for Obama. That number came down as the votes rolled in. I think something similar will happen with GA, and in fact has already. They're at 56-40 now.
