Clinton Wins Indiana, Obama Takes N.C.
CBS News Projects Democrats Will Split Tuesday's Big Primaries

EVANSVILLE, Ind., May 6, 2008

(CBS/AP) CBS News projects that Hillary Rodham Clinton will win the Indiana Democratic primary and Barack Obama will win in North Carolina. Clinton pulled off an Indiana win in what was a virtual must-win Midwestern state. With 57 percent of the votes being reported in the state, she was leading Obama 54 percent to 46 percent.

Obama's win mirrored earlier triumphs in Southern states with large black populations: Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana and South Carolina among them. With 19 percent of the votes in North Carolina being reported, Obama was leading Clinton 62 percent to 37 percent.

CBS News exit poll results show that most voters in both states made up their minds a while ago. Only 17 percent in Indiana and 14 percent in North Carolina decided in the last three days. Twenty-four percent in Indiana and 18 percent in North Carolina decided in the last week.

Late deciders backed Clinton in Indiana by a margin of 62 percent to 38 percent for Obama. In North Carolina, Obama won late deciders by a much smaller margin of 49 percent to 48 percent
