Wisconsin Primary Results
February 20th, 2008
Sen. John McCain is easily leading former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee by a wide margin in the Republican primary.
In the Democratic contest, Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama are running close.
The Democratic primary results essentially serve only as an opinion poll, as the party will allocate its 97 delegates based on the results of the Feb. 9 caucuses and upcoming conventions and caucuses.
State Republicans will allocate about half of their 40 delegates to the national convention based on the primary, and the rest based on caucuses and conventions.
McCain and Obama, who won the state’s caucuses earlier this month, are the projected winners in today’s Wisconsin primary, where the polls closed two hours ago.
