Democratic hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton has won the Florida Democratic presidential primary, a symbolic victory which gave a psychological boost to her campaign as she looks to Super Tuesday of February 5.Clinton easily outpaced rival Senator Barack Obama by receiving 48 per cent of the vote with 19 per cent of the vote counted.
Obama received 30 per cent of the vote, while former Sen. John Edwards placed a solid third with 14 per cent.
Among other things this will bring about a prospect of a fight for delegates at the National Convention in Denver this August.
