As the late afternoon exit polls suggested, Donald Trump looks to be on his way not just to a victory but a smashing victory. It seems plausible that he wins all the delegates in the state. That requires not just a statewide majority but winning districts. On the Democratic side, the results so far seem kind of hard to figure. The early exit polls suggested a pretty good night for Clinton. When the polls closed at 9 PM, though, CNN at least was reporting an extremely close race based on the exit polls – Clinton 52%, Sanders 48%.

So far though, the results that have come in don’t suggest that close of a race. Clinton has big lead with a decent number of votes in. But they’re mostly out of New York City, where you would expect her to run up good numbers. To get a sense of what’s happening, look at the county by county breakdowns here.
