[VolcanoJen]

1. Holy shit! Is Gary and Chicagoland just now coming in?

4 points!!!

I just got home, and spent the early evening working and depressed as my friends texted me the early IN returns. But it's getting better all the time!

[Boz]

10. Yes, it was outstanding that why they didn't call it, that county represents 8% of the whole state

Thats exactly why the window is closing

[alcibiades_mystery]

17. Nope: 0% from Lake County

That last big bump was a set of precincts in Marion County: he picked up 5,000 votes in that batch (from 47,000 behind to 42,000 behind)

[Jersey Devil]

32. NO!! No Gary or any of Lake County yet - look here

[anigbrowl]

44. And falling, with a lot of votes still to be counted

[David Zephyr]

21. FOUR PERCENT! FOUR PERCENT! FOUR LOUSY PERCENT.

Yeah, baby!

[DS1]

22. another 10,000 gained on her

[book_worm]

24. What cities are still out?

[RainDog]

34. last I saw here -only 9% of Monroe Co (IU-Blmgtn) and Gary still out

both of these are Obama areas.

[nyccitizen]

25. Her lead is down to just 42,000 votes, with 28% left to report. nt

[uponit7771]

28. How much of the suburbs need to be reported!?!?!?!?

[DS1]

35. lots

use the map on cnn's page

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/state/#IN

[nyccitizen]

39. Not that it matters, but it's looking like Barack will net gain around 250k votes...

...in the popular vote beauty contest.

[uponit7771]

30. dupe

[tammywammy]

31. Amazing!

[L0oniX]

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[senseandsensibility]

36. OMG

This is wonderful!

[DS1]

38. Obama has an 8,000 votes gain to go in Hamilton County

look

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/state/#IN

[MindMatter]

58. That's a very interesting result.

That is the most upscale area in Indiana. Very Republican. I guess this just confirms that Obama does well with the best educated people. Surely there were some Republicans in Hamilton who took part in Operation Chaos. Maybe 1000 or 2000 of Clinton's votes. So realistically, Obama probably got 65% of the legitimate voters in Hamilton County, and there are surely fewer than 5% African-Americans in that county.

[Kahuna]

41. If it's within 4% it's a win for Obama because of the dittohead effect. nt

[sniffa]

42. Fuck yeah!

I still expect a Clinton win, but now I'm satisfied to know that it's most likely going down to the wire.

I'd love for Obama to pull it out, but I'll settle for the massacre in NC. :evilgrin:

[book_worm]

43. This is reminding me of his come from behind win in Missouri

[Guaranteed]

45. CHUCK TODD- OBAMA CAN POSSIBLY STILL WIN.

38K vote difference. Obama campaign now saying they think they'll come up 10-15K short. But still so much Obama territory out- some Clinton as well.

[ShortnFiery]

46. We're all figuratively holding our breath.

I think, just perhaps, many PUNDITS underestimated *the insight* of the Average American residing in NC and IN.

Let's see? ;)

[usregimechange]

47. Lake Co still out! This will get real close!

[Kaleko]

48. Oh, be still my heart! Do you realize

how many people in Europe and around the world are holding their breath?

[MadBadger]

49. Its 3.2

[suffragette]

50. Oh My!

:woohoo:

[MindMatter]

51. Obama will pick up 5000 more in the college counties

The media is focused on Gary, but Bloomington (IU) and Lafayette (Purdue) are only half reported. Obama has taken those counties by a landslide. If those numbers hold up, those two counties will close the gap by about 5,00. I'm guessing the Lake County closes it another 25,000, so it could end up 51-49.

Clinton is risking making a fool of herself by giving a victory speech when there is a very good chance this could go slightly for Obama.

But she figures she has nothing to lose.

[RainDog]

52. Bloomington had 12000 early voters - mostly students -

[MindMatter]

54. Layayette is 100% counted now. Blookington still 67%

I'm surprised nobody is talking about this. Lake County is huge, but that's a significant number of votes left in Monroe County.

[leftupnorth]

53. 3.44% now

[candidatechopin]

55. The lead is 4% forever

What are you talking about? It's been 4% since I tuned in.

[MindMatter]

56. MSNBC says it is 2% now, under 20,000 difference

[leftupnorth]

57. 1.72% with 91% in
