Breaking down NY and Western NY

New York's already been called for McCain and Clinton. Let's take a look at the numbers and see how Western New York voted.

- Maybe a lot of people saw the "Mitt Mobile" in the past few months. With 85% of Western New York reporting, Romney has more than 30% of the vote. It's irrelevant, since New York is winner-take-all.


- Mike Huckabee (whose victory in Georgia just caused a ripple throughout the newsroom) is getting a very respectable 15% of the vote in WNY.


- Barack Obama's campaign has a right to cheer. With more than 80% reporting, he's getting nearly 40% of the vote. That's going to mean delegates his campaign wasn't counting on. Curt Smith said it's a "tremendous night" for him.


McCain has taken Arizona.
