While pundits foam at the mouth debating who’s getting the black vote, the white vote, the women’s vote, and the young vote, Phillyist only cares about who’s getting your vote. The results from our People’s Choice Endorsement are in, and there’s no need to argue over superdelegates—Barack Obama is the winner by a landslide, with 68% of the vote. So much for the most recent professional poll results predicting a statistical tie between him and......
