The latest in what has to be the worst-run presidential primary in recent memory: the New Mexico Democratic Party is now recounting all ballots--and only then will begin counting the 17,000 provisional ballots."There is still no word," according to Albuquerque station KOB, on when to expect an announcement on who actually won the primary (Clinton leads Obama by around 1000 votes).
Because of the closeness of the results, there should be no shift in apportioned delegates. New Mexico, by the way, featured a quite significant gap between the exit poll (5-point Obama win, whites of all age groups for Obama, Hispanics of all age groups for Clinton) and the ultimate result, raising further questions about the nature of the process.
