And the top vote-getter among delegates is ...

In case you were wondering:

Mail-in ballot results for yesterday's presidential preference primary are included in the tally showing on the state Board of Elections Web site.

The board had about 5,000 such ballots to count, about three times more than in the last presidential primary. But it did count them all last night, said elections director Bob Rapoza, and added them into the online tally.

The results for the presidential candidate races can also be sorted by community and polling place.

There is a separate link for mail-in ballots for delegate candidates, too.

The mail-ins did not affect the outcome of the historic primary, which broke the record for any primary election in Rhode Island.

Hillary Clinton is the winner among Democratic presidential candidates, while John McCain took the Republican preference.

Top vote-getter among all the delegate candidates? Myrth York, a three-time Democratic candidate for governor, who was running as a delegate for Clinton in Congressional District 1.
