ABC News echoed the NBC projection, saying also that Obama is the winner in Pennsylvania.
Another state besides Pennsylvania which McCain had coveted was New Hampshire. ABC News projects that Obama will win that state as well. McCain campaigned in that state also in the closing days.
On Monday, McCain said:
"We're going to win Pennsylvania tomorrow and I'm going to be the President of the United States. Pennsylvania will do it, and Pittsburgh will be the important area."
Unfortunately that turned out to not be the case, as Pennsylvania's 21 electoral votes are in Obama's chest now.
It's an important win, as McCain felt that turning Pennsylvania red was a key to his victory. Obviously more to come.
These results are the preliminary exit polls from the 2008 presidential elections for the state of Pennsylvania. They will change throughout the evening, so if you have an update, please post the updated results for the state of Pennsylvania in the comments area.

This radio show is about what is truly at stake in this election, and what we are TRULY voting for. This election can change the mindset of the entire country and could have an effect for years to come. Most people don't think of it in this way. It's very surprising. And either way you decide, you will at least be aware and understand the unspoken implications. If you like what you hear, please pass the link on to others who you may think might like it.
