It is bound to happen in almost any organized event. With delegates receiving more votes than a state has, discretions between what is said and what is showed on screen, it is clear that some of the kinks in the vote counting are still being worked out. None of this is going to be too crucial. It was clear from the states that voted tonight, even with a generous room for error, Barack Obama overwhelmingly won.
By a margin of more than three to one.
His cheering section hardly had a break between states to catch their breath as Obama continually received the most votes from many states. In a bit of a surprise, Obama received all the votes from Colorado but shared Illinois, his home state, with three other candidates. Regardless, it is rather clear who came out on top on the first day of debate. Super Tuesday is over, and Obama is, so far, victor.
Unofficial tallies of the top vote-getters: Obama 1,180, Hillary Clinton 311, and John Edwards 302.
