New Delegate Totals

February
6

In New York, Sen. Clinton picked up 140 delegates and Barack Obama picked up 90 delegates, according to the latest numbers from the state Democratic party.
Clinton won all upstate New York congressional districts, yet one of the closest appears to be the 28th Congressional District, represented by Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-Fairport, Monroe County.
Clinton won the popular vote in that district by just 495 votes, giving her a 3-2 delegate edge over Obama.
Obama’s biggest victories were in Queens and in parts of Brooklyn, where he won the popular vote and picked up more delegates than Clinton. He won three of the four congressional districts in largely African-American communities.
Yet Clinton did well in upstate, where she made remarkable inroads since her first run for the Senate in 2000.

One Response to “New Delegate Totals”

  1. Jim Kelly - NY Conservative Campaigns

    Hillary Clinton…...........Is a “Lighting Rod” for the GOP as the base will run out to vote against her.

    Barack Hussein Obama…...Is The Inexperienced Kid, Mr. “Motivational Speaker ” who always reads off the TelePrompTer.

    Dems also know in the back of their minds that Obama is a complete Rookie” as he was just a “State” Senator two years ago, doing what State Senators do best, Park dedications, Baby seat laws and Street namings.

    His lack of any experience will play in the back of the minds of the Dems.

    THE REAL FIGHT I SEE GOING ON HERE…...

    IS THE DEM ESTABLISHMENT TRYING TO TAKE & GAIN CONTROL OF THE NATIONAL PARTY FROM BILLARY CLINTON AFTER 16 YEARS OF HIS DOMINANCE.
