2008 Mississippi Democratic Primary Results Map
No huge surprises here; Obama won by the largest margin in the Delta, and lost the much whiter regions of Northeastern and Southeastern Mississippi. The delegate count looks like it will be 19-14. If Clinton and Obama had split Republiicans 50-50, his win would have been closer to 23-10. As it is, he won 61% of the vote and 57% of the delegates.
This map suggests that if Obama wins the nomination and has long coattails, Pickering's seat in the 3rd District might be vulnerable.

I had the same thought. But remember that it might be that case that almost all of the white folks were voting in the Republican primary there because of the House race.
