First Exit Polls From Pennsylvania

Hmmm. From Drudge - Clinton 52%, Obama 48%. If that holds Clinton will be for a disappointing night.

NOTE FROM CAMPAIGN SPOT - He says Drudge has the numbers reversed and the early polls are Obama 52%, Clinton 47%. Now that would be a shocker and probably a campaign-ender for Clinton. However, others point out that Obama generally overperforms by 7-8 points in early exit polls.

UPDATE: Negative attacks may be backfiring on Clinton:

Despite all the down-to-the-wire campaigning, preliminary exit poll results indicate that nearly eight in 10 Pennsylvania voters made up their minds at least a week ago, and six in 10 decided on their candidate more than a month ago -- a higher number of early deciders than the norm in Democratic primaries to date.

As far as campaigning, many discern a negative tone — and more blame it on Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., than on Barack Obama, D-Ill.. Two-thirds of Pennsylvania voters in preliminary exit poll results say Clinton attacked Obama unfairly; fewer, but still about half, also say Obama unfairly attacked Clinton.
