Hillary Holds Commanding Lead in Oklahoma - 41 % Clinton, 17 % Obama
Among Democrats, the percentage planning to vote for Clinton increased from 34 to 41 percent. Former North Carolina U.S. Sen. John Edwards, who suspended his campaign on the last day of polling, remained steady in the mid-20s, while U.S. Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois improved slightly, to 17 percent from just under 15. Sixteen percent statewide still were undecided.

"It appears that Clinton will be the winner in the Oklahoma primary," Soltow said. "What happens to Obama is largely dependent on where Edwards' votes go.

"Regardless of where they go, it doesn't change the likely outcome. The only thing it will do is determine who picks up the most delegates."

At least one of those Edwards supporters said he probably will stay home on Tuesday.

"I think I may save my vote until the general election," said Sam Henry of Bixby. "The Democrats aren't going to have anyone I want to vote for."

1. I think Mr. Henry echoes a lot of people
all over America. No real populist candidates. Just hold your nose and vote for the Democratic nominee because the Republican nominee will be worse without a doubt.
