Obama Loses West Virginia Delegates To Prison Inmate

An obscure federal prison inmate gave President Obama an unexpected run for his money in the West Virginia Democratic Primary Tuesday, highlighting the deep dislike for the president in the Appalachian heartland. - buzzfeed

Judd is also known as federal prison inmate Number 11593-051 at the Federal Correctional Institution in Texarkana, Texas, where Judd is serving a 210-month sentence for extortion and
making threats at the University of New Mexico in 1999.

The votes appear to be votes against President Obama rather than for Judd.

Voters in other states showed their displeasure with Obama in Democratic primaries last March. - AP/yahoo
