MSNBC and CNN are running the delegate numbers from last night, and coming up with different totals:
Democrats (Need 2,025 to win)
| Candidate | MSNBC | CNN* |
| Clinton | 582 | 632 |
| Obama | 485 | 626 |
Republicans (Need 1,191 to win)
| McCain | 516 | 598 |
| Romney | 207 | 259 |
| Huckabee | 142 | 166 |
*Includes pledged delegates only, minus super delegates
In addition, CNN scores the total delegate hunt this way (including super delegates)
(Candidate - Super Ds / Total)
Clinton - 193 / 825
Obama - 106 / 732
And on the GOP side, CNN includes the unpledged delegates for these totals:
McCain - 17 / 615
Romney - 9 / 268
Huckabee - 3 / 169
Also, the calendar going forward might favor Barack Obama, including places like Louisiana and the Virgin Islands -- small states where he seems to be doing well...
