Polls closed in Vermont at 7 p.m. EST, and no one’s hesitating in making calls — it looks like Barack Obama has won the state’s Democratic primary and John McCain has taken the Republican primary. (Actually, the Drudge Report didn’t even wait for the polls to close before making its call.)

Next up is Ohio, where polls close at 7:30 p.m. EST.
