A lot of contests have not been certified yet. The total states won also appears to include Texas, but current delegate projections from the caucuses in Texas have Obama winning the most delegates in that state. If that lead holds when certified, being a delegate race, Texas will be another state won by Obama. The key is not to get too bogged down in delegate numbers from any one source - they all differ - but to look at the trend. By all indications and using all sources, Barack Obama is way ahead in pledged delegates; pledged delegates plus superdelegates who've endorsed; and States won. Incidentally Obama is also ahead in terms of the popular vote. In short, Barack Obama is winning by any measure possible! It should be noted that all delegate counts are estimates at this stage.
