Obama wins Georgia
An interesting exit poll tidbit:
Asked which candidate they thought was most qualified to be commander-in-chief, regardless of whom they were voting for, voters in every state except two (Georgia and Illinois) picked Mrs. Clinton.
At the same time, they were asked who would be most likely to unite the country. Voters in every state except Tennessee picked Mr. Obama.
I sat at a table with 5 female students tonight. None voted for Hillary.
They favored Huckabee. 
It’s a three-way race among the Republicans here. But my students are typical:
Huckabee appears to have won the youth vote pretty decisively, taking 41 percent of voters 18-29 and 37 percent among 30-44. Older voters are split between McCain and Romney.
