Obama Leads In Wisconsin

By Marc Ambinder

So now that the polls in Wisconsin are closed, I can say that the exit polls are suggesting that Barack Obama will win, big.

But the networks aren't able to call this yet.

The exit polls suggest that Obama won men by nearly 25 points and tied among women. Independents chose Obama, while Democrats were split in their choice. Obama won among those with college degrees; Clinton and Obama tied among those without college degrees. Obama won strongly among wealthier voters and the candidates split among those earning less than $50K. Late deciders went for Obama.
