| Thanks to all our volunteers who made calls to Mississippi voters.
Not only did we win Mississippi tonight, but CNN officially called the Texas caucuses for Obama. The mainstream media is finally reporting what really happened in Texas.
Obama wins in Mississippi, CNN projects

Sen. Barack Obama will win Mississippi's Democratic primary, CNN projects.
Obama will also finish first in the Texas Democratic caucuses, which were held last week.
He will get more delegates out of the state than rival Sen. Hillary Clinton, who won the state's primary.
Under the Texas Democratic Party's complex delegate selection plan, Texas voters participated in both a primary and caucuses last week.
Two-thirds of the state's 193 delegates were at stake at the primary, while the remaining third were decided by the caucuses.
As has been the case in many primary states, Obama won overwhelming support from African-American voters. They went for him over Clinton 91-9 percent.
The state has a larger proportion African-Americans (36 percent, according to the 2000 census) than any other state in the country. And black voters make up nearly 70 percent of registered Democrats. |
