Hug Hillary Ten. More than likely, she'll be your new Commander and Chief, and protect you from the evil terrorists.

Ted, Hillary won CA by a wide margin thanks to Latinos and Asians.

I can see why Latinos would vote for her but Asians? That truly stumps me.


Ugh! It makes sense to me....CA Asians, first generation, don't particularly like blacks either. Having said that, I thought Asians would vote more like whites. Clearly that was incorrect assumption. However, Asians are only 8% of the voting population so I don't think they are the ones who swung it. I think it was the Latinos and working class whites like in the Inland Empire, and in the San Jouquin and Antelope Valleys who made the difference.

And btw, when we are talking Asians, I am mostly focusing on first generation Asians. I would think second and third generation vote differently.......more like their economic class rather than their ethnicity. Do you disagree?

Wait wait wait... it ain't over in CA. LA came in before the Bay Area, and Clinton does better in LA while Obama does better in the Bay area.

Clinton's gonna win, but it very well could be single digits and not a wide margin. When it was called, Clinton was up 22. She's now up 16 and only a third of the vote is in.

Survey USA has done really well tonight, and they had Hillary projected at winning by 10. They may still be on the mark. If so, Obama really did just fine there.
