Balta1701 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Ok, based on current results, I'd expect Obama to pick up another 7500 between IU and PU unless there's a turnout difference. Clinton probably has another 1500 coming between Porter and LaPorte, Obama probably has another 2000 or so coming in around Indy. That means Obama needs to pick up around 35000 in Lake County to win.

Balta1701 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 By the way, this looks like there's a good chance the margin will be under 10,000 votes either way. Anyone think the Limbaugh effect can't easily have accounted for those? It's showing up in the exit polling as potentially pushing several times that many crossovers.

Most of the time when i say it, I get shouted down. but this could be a REAL republican effort to keep her alive. Like I said earlier, if you facotr out the republicans, the exit polls show Clinton +2.8 rather than almost 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I wonder if it's possible for Obama to actually pull off the delegate victory in Indiana even if the state goes slightly against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan562004 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Doesn't Hillary take a huge fund raising hit after tonight? She gets smoked in NC and now, even if Obama doesn't win Ind., Lake County will give him an excellent showing. Any momentum she had after PA seems to be gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe and Tippecanoe (IU and PU) are still at less than 50% in. Porter and LaPorte aren't in all the way yet, but the margins there are small. There's a few precincts hanging out around Indy still to come in also that might have a few Obama votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
