Results so far: 5% in, 56-44 Clinton.

Last edited Tue May 3, 2016, 06:58 PM - Edit history (1)

Clinton's dominating most of the rural counties, and Sanders is currently leading in Monroe County--which comes as no surprise, since that's Bloomington and Indiana University.

Allen County--that's Fort Wayne--is starting to report, and no surprise, it's going to Clinton.
Vigo County--Terre Haute--is going 72-27 for Hillary with one-third of precincts reporting.
St. Joseph County--South Bend and Notre Dame--is 51-48 for Sanders.

It would mostly be students, unions, educators, and minorities voting for Dems there.

Not sure what to expect. Love to see her win but it's always safe to go with the fact he's losing no matter what.

People don't turn out for lost causes, and we're approaching the time on the calendar when it's getting close enough to the election that people want to vote for the perceived winner.

And Bernie should be winning that...oops?

David Wasserman:
Clinton is crushing it in early returns from rural Indiana. She’s winning Fayette County with 64 percent, Daviess with 65 percent, Whitley with 54 percent, Knox with 57 percent. These are places Sanders should be winning to win statewide. So far, the exit polls look way off and Clinton is looking pretty good.

Clinton is ahead by 15 percent AND her best expected counties (Hamilton, Lake and Marion) haven’t even reported results yet. Blowout on the Dem side?

To win...so will be an upset if she does?

I still think the swing over to her is what's taking place... Voters want to be part of a winning event...

Hillary didn't spend a dime on ads in Indiana...and for it to be even close, let alone Hillary leading, is FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC.
