Both of them swept the three contests of DC, Maryland, and Virginia.
As a result of Obama's landslide wins, he now leads in the delegate count by around 25.
Did I call it, or did I call it?

Obama's wins aren't surprising given that the electorate in those three primaries was significantly African-American. Unfortunately, although everyone says that the nomination process isn't about race, it is about race - African-Americans are voting for a candidate "who looks like them". I don't fault them for that.
