The cable networks called the island territory for Clinton the instant polls closed at 3:00 p.m., indicating a landslide; exit polls showed her winning virtually every group, including young voters typically loyal to nomination rival Barack Obama.

“I am overwhelmed by this vote today,” Clinton said in her victory speech. She used the speech to press the case that she’s proven her superior electability by pulling more popular votes than Obama.

She said more people have voted for her “than for any candidate in the history of presidential primaries. We are winning the popular vote.”

But is she really winning the popular vote? Because let’s remember that Clinton isn’t counting four caucus states that don’t report popular vote. With those, Obama is ahead by about 44,000 votes. Obviously this isn’t a large margin, but for her to claim outright that she leads the popular vote is misleading at best.

Right now the delegate count (according to Real Clear Politics) stands at…

Obama – 2,068
Clinton – 1,914

So Obama needs 50 to reach the new number of 2,118. The primaries on Tuesday should bring him within 20 35 of that total.

So…will more than 20 35 superdelegates stand up and stop this or will they wait until the convention?

Puerto Rico is one of the last to hold their primaries on June 1st, and Hill seems to be holding onto a comfortable lead there.

The story is in Spanish, but here’s a (very) rough translation…

Hillary Clinton holds a comfortable advantage of 13 percentage points on Barack Obama, her rival in the Democratic primary in Puerto Rico, revealed a survey disclosed yesterday by the company Research & Research.

The intention of the voters, who identified themselves as democrats, reflected an endorsement of 50% for the senator from New York as opposed to 37% for the senator from Illinois. Another 13% were identified as undecided.

There’s still a lot of swing there, but Hillary has done well with the Latino community, so odds are she’ll take this is the race is still competitive at that time. But one wonders if it’ll even matter by then.
