Except for the a handful of ballots, the final results for the California primary win. Here's a look at the winners and losers from Tuesday.
Winners

More than 145,000 new Democrats registered in the weeks before the election; just 38,000 or so registered Republican. DTS voters cast hundreds of thousands of ballots for the Democratic presidential candidates, and Dems will work hard to keep them in the Democratic camp. Mark my words: California will stay solid blue, regardless of the nominee.
Hillary Clinton -- California remains Clinton country. The campaign's strategy of banking vote-by-mail voters and targeted women and Latinos paid off in spades. Hats off to Ace Smith and his team for a brilliant campaign.
Barack Obama -- Despite having the best press week that I've seen in my lifetime and a well-oiled ground campaign, Obama came up short in the Golden State. But he's still in the hunt delegate wise, and a new generation of supporters will help Democrats over the long term in our state.
