Clinton Wins in Ohio and Texas, delegates' count still favors Obama


Winning in Ohio, Hillary Rodham Clinton ended a long string of defeats and kept her ambition of obtaining the nomination alive. However, Barack Obama keeps nearly the same delegate lead as he had before Tuesday primaries, and remains on his way to winning the contest. The psychological effect of yesterday's results will depend on the final count in Texas where, at midnight local time, Clinton and Obama were head-to-head. CNN projected a Clinton win.
