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%.

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.

Massachusetts is very, very close apparently, in the Dem race:

Exit poll preliminary data: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21225986

Have Clinton leading among women 56% to 41%, and Obama leading among men 58% to 37% -- but men only made up 43% of the voters, women 57%.

With what percentage of the vote in?

Smaller and more rural precincts go first...

Soz, it is the bewitching hour for you.... I'm 10 minutes late in pushing you. :::ducks:::

With zero percent of the vote in. CNN called SC for Obama based on the exit polls.

Of course, it's entirely possible that my memory does me in.

Update 3: First Exit Poll Estimates: These are bound to change, but the exit polls for the 8 p.m. states are

AL: O 54-41 C

CT: O 53--46 C

DE: O 49-44 C

MA: O 49-48 C

MO: C 47-45 O

NJ: C 49-49 O

OK: C 58--33 O

TN: C 51-40 0

more as I figure them out...

No no, thats true - they called it for Obama with 0% of the vote in. But 70% in the exit polls cant have been. ANyway, no matter, not important.

CNN is saying Obama is leading in Connecticut - dunno if thats exit polls or preliminary count..

According to Chris Bowers..
