Newsweek* has released some early exit polling from Pennsylvania which shows that the economy is the top concern for PA voters. About half said the economy was most important, and about a quarter cited the Iraq war.
As for voting today, about one-fifth said the race of the candidate mattered, and about one-fifth said that gender did. No word on whether the exit poll measured bitterness or asked whether voters were carrying as they exited the polls (either guns or crosses).
