The final network exit polls from last night's Wisconsin primary show Sen. John McCain did top Mike Huckabee among self-identified conservative voters, winning just short of half of all Republican primary voters there.
It's McCain's fourth victory among conservatives (out of 24 races where exit-polling has been conducted), but his second victory in the last three contests, suggesting he may finally be gaining some momentum among conservatives.
Here are the numbers from those three most recent contests:
| WISCONSIN | |
|---|---|
| (Conservatives made up 61 percent of GOP primary electorate.) | |
| McCain | 48 percent |
| Huckabee | 44 percent |
| VIRGINIA | |
| (Conservatives made up 65 percent of GOP primary electorate.) | |
| McCain | 38 percent |
| Huckabee | 51 percent |
| MARYLAND | |
| (Conservatives made up 61 percent of GOP primary electorate.) | |
| McCain | 44 percent |
| Huckabee | 36 percent |
