My Sugar Land caucus split 60/40 for Clinton. Blacks went for Obama, Asians and Hispanics for Clinton, whites split somewhat. Strangely, the more blue collar were on Obama's side, which is not what I expected. There were crossovers in both camps.
Here in RI it appears that Hillary has won big! With about 87% of the precints reporting it looks like Hillary 60% to Obama 40%. Voter turnout apparently has been large in spite of fairly substantial rain here today.
I'm a registered Democrat and I cast my vote today for Hillary, but, honestly, come November I may not cast my vote for any presidential candidate.
