Though all the results from Super Tuesday are back, More than 17,000 provisional ballots are the only thing that stand between either Hillary Rodham Clinton or Barack Obama from claiming victory in the final caucus from Super Tuesday.

The votes stand like this right now:
Clinton held a lead of 1,123 votes — 68,654 votes compared with 67,531 for Obama.
The number of provisional votes yet to be counted: 17,000.

Democrats could begin verifying the thousands of provisional ballots as early as Friday. Such ballots were given to voters who showed up at the wrong voting site, whose names were not on registered voter lists, or those who requested an absentee ballot but signed an affidavit saying they did not return it.

"Over the next couple of days, we'll have a good sense of when we'll finish this process," state Democratic Party Chairman Brian Colon said Thursday.

    Voting in New Mexico was a mess. I'm a registered Democrat (and so's me wife) and they didn't even have us on the list. I even had my voter registration card with me and they still gave me a hard time. It was a joke. I took my daughter along with me to show her democracy in action... and all she saw was chaos. Thankfully they had cookies or it would have been a total loss.
