Obama Wins Mississippi

No surprise here. Here's a link to CNN's exits. We'll have some highlights momentarily.

UPDATE: Even though Obama's going to win this one by a fairly large margin, the exits show a demographic breakdown we're familiar with:

*Clinton won whites 73-26
*Obama won blacks 90-10

*Clinton won 65-and-older voters 56-44
*Obama won 17-to-64-yo voters 62-38

*Obama did win college-degree voters and non-degree voters by equal margins 59-41

*The understated clincher: Obama won women 57-42, and men 61-39. Sort of two key groups.

Some interesting results:
