Tag: Convention

Senator Clinton ‘suspended’ her campaign today. This means she is no longer an active candidate for president. She, however, does keep all her delegates, can still raise money, and can step back in if things all of a sudden go south for Obama… Remember he is only the presumptive nominee. It is not official until the convention in Denver in August.

Now, if this all seems pro-Clinton I do not really mean it too. I’m just stating the facts. She CAN come back. I don’t think she should in fact I would have had her leave EARLIER. That’s all I really have to say about that news today.

Oh wait, one more thing. If you did not see the speech she made suspending her campaign, look it up. It was one of her best speeches, in fact it may have been her best. If she had been making speeches like this during the whole campaign, even just the beginning, I think this result would be VERY different. If she had started sounding like this… I think she could have won.

So here are all the results from Super Tuesday. I’ll be keeping it updated though the evening. I will be watching ABC News on the TV, with our local ABC station: ABC 7 Chicago. I will be keeping tabs on CNN Politics on the internet.

Note: The official delegate counts probably won’t be out till tomorrow or Thursday. These are estimated delegate counts, based on the popular vote.

1,681 Delegates are up for grabs in the Democratic Party, 1,020 in the Republican Party

I will be updating as I get information.

I will have a post-game with a final delegate count either Wed or Thurs.

LAST UPDATE: Wednesday Feb 6th, 8:32 a.m. (All Times Central)
