Hill's lead down to only 2% in Indiana Now!! 51 - 49%
With 91% of precincts reporting.. her lead is down to 2%.... this could get VERY interesting. Even if she wins by 2%... is that enough to keep the flood of Super Delegats from pushing Obama this week?

Thoughts? Opinions?

6. From what I remember, absentee votes tend to swing white
Historically, absentee votes tend to come from white voters. Don't know if that will hold in this scenario, but it's worth mentioning.

But, now that I think of it, they also tend to trend higher-income, which would benefit Obama. In either case, it'll be interesting.

5. And to think.. she was up by 35% only a few hours ago...
:eyes:...

You do have to wonder what her inside pollsters were telling her though, when she came out and gave that speech. In fact, Obama pretty much conceeded IN in his speech in NC earlier tonight too.

After hearing both of them talk, I really thought that Hill had IN, and by 5 - 6 percent... polling seems to be a very inexact science.

9. 9% of the votes left to count?
That would translate to about 92,000 votes. To overcome Hillary's 20,000 vote lead, Obama would need to get about 2 out of every 3 of those votes? It's not impossible.

13. He could win that Lake district by 70/30; that'd make it a nail-biter.
