The Senator from NY is projected to win by a smaller-than expected margin.

According to CNN's exit polls, Clinton is up 52-48 in the Keystone state.

With 35 percent of precincts reporting, the first returns have Clinton up 54-46.

With 61 75 percent of precincts reporting, Clinton is up 54-46.

With 94 percent of precincts reporting, Clinton is up 55-45.

Penn fun fact: according to 2000 census data, Pennsylvania had the third oldest median age, and the 6th lowest share of residents aged 18-24. There's been lots of talk about women, blacks and white working-class voters, but it's also the case that Pennsylvania skews older than most of the rest of the country, and Obama's done well among younger voters throughout the primaries.

Anyway, it looks like we'll have no knock-out punch for Obama, no landslide win for Clinton, and on we go to Indiana and North Carolina.

And another few weeks of watching Clinton and Obama supporters rip each other's throats out. Oh, joy.

Have fun in the comments, and remember: if you like Clinton you're a racist and if you favor Obama you're a sexist pig. And either way, the media's totally biased against your candidate.
