Remaining Precincts

04.22.08 -- 10:02PM
By Josh Marshall

The word going into tonight was that it would be Clinton's counties coming in late. But Chuck Todd just did a presentation on MSNBC which suggested that the remaining precincts may lean slightly in Obama's direction. Apparently there's a lot of suburban Philly still left to report.

Another story coming out of tonight is that Obama's margin in the City of Philadelphia does not appear to have been as big as many people expected. (I'm sure there will be speculation about whether Obama's refusal to pay "street money" was a factor. But remember, Hillary did have Mayor Nutter plus Gov. Rendell, who's a former Mayor of Philadelphia, on her side. I suspect that was at least as big a factor.)

Late Update: Another great Matthews' line for the evening, discussing the great cleavage in society -- "African Americans" and "white liberals" vs. "regular people".
