Update: CNN reports that based on the exit polls the turnout in Puerto Rico surpassed expectations of 55,000 and may exceed 425,000, and Hillary Clinton likely trounced Obama 2 to 1.

Update: Based on the exit polls, CNN reports that Hillary Clinton has won in every category of voters in Puerto Rico including those based on gender, age, educational level, income, etc. - "She swept Puerto Rico."

As the polls closed in Puerto Rico minutes ago, CNN projected Hillary Clinton the winner by a wide margin. How wide remains to be seen. This could be the third blowout win for Hillary Clinton in recent primaries. Blitzer and Schneider are talking about the likelihood that a landslide in Puerto Rico will boost Clinton’s argument about winning the popular vote, and they are comparing the Democratic race to the 2000 presidential race between Al Gore and George W. Bush.

More to come.
