Gary Mayor Predicts Possible Indiana Shocker

Updated 11:12 p.m.
By Alec MacGillis
As the fate of a nailbiter Indiana primary — and possibly the course of the Democratic race — hung on his city, Gary Mayor Rudy Clay said just now that it might take a while yet to finish counting the vote in Lake County, which includes Gary, and said tonight his city had turned out so overwhelmingly for Barack Obama that it might just be enough to close the gap with Hillary Rodham Clinton.

“Let me tell you, when all the votes are counted, when Gary comes in, I think you’re looking at something for the world to see,” Clay, an Obama supporter, said in a telephone interview from Obama’s Gary headquarters. “I don’t know what the numbers are yet, but Gary has absolutely produced in large numbers for Obama here.”

Clay said the results were late coming in from Lake County because of the large numbers of absentee ballots that had to be counted — about 11,000. Under local practice, all of the cartridges from voting machines in Gary and nearby East Chicago are first collected at the local airport before being driven to the county headquarters to be tallied with the results from the rest of the county, he said. He said there were no major technical problems holding up the count.

(current number is already split delegates 50-50) No way Hillary can win the nomination. the rest of race will only give change about 5-8 delegates total to either side.

No way Hillary can win the nomination. the rest of race will only give change about 5-8 delegates total to either side.

NC margin is too big for her to bridge with superdelegates. Time for Hillary to say good night. Kentucky won't help her much. Obama will simply outspend to close the gap. I guess Edward's crew finally deliver the knock out punch. It’s over for Hillary. NC margin is too big for her to bridge with superdelegates.

There wasn't a line or a traffic jam, but a nice steady stream of people. I imagine more people went to vote earlier, before work. Was overjoyed to cast my vote for Jim Neal!
