92% of African Americans for Obama according to CNN.
It was to be expected of course. Let's keep our fingers crossed that African Americans actually showed up in huge numbers. My friends in Philly are telling me that turnout is high.

Actually it wasn't to be expected. Every poll I've seen has had Obama running at about 75% of the AA vote in PA. Which I found to very doubtful. I figured there had to be some Hillary support among Mayor Nutter's loyalists, but I really doubted it would be that high.
A 17% difference for what is expected to be about 15% would make a difference of 2.5% in total vote, which should be enough to prevent a double-digit win even looking at some of the more favorable (to her) pre-election polls.
