According to the Pennsylvania Department of State’s election returns website, 99.34% of precincts have reported results.

Clinton 1,237,696

Obama 1,043,174

That puts Clinton 194,522 votes ahead of Obama for a winning margin of 8.6%, and it puts my 8% prediction right on the money.

UPDATE: As Patsy points out in the comments, it’s now been updated at the PA Secretary of State. Now, with 99.44% reporting, Hillary’s margin of victory is now 9.2%. So, my prediction was off — but only by a little bit!
