Male (45%) 51% - 49% Klinton
                           
Female (55%) 53% - 47% Klinton

Generally the first exit polls are a bit slanted to Obama, so in the end this looks like a 4-5 point Beast win.

Not nearly enough.

Which of those two idiots are you again [qm]

Republicans preferred Clinton, for the first time. Independents still preferred Obama, a sure sign of Limbaugh propping up Clinton.

Tell that to someone from a decade ago and watch their head explode

What, there was a primary today?

Yes.

Mitt Romney is dead, btw.

Clinton wins whites 60-40; Obama wins blacks 92-8.

Almost exactly the same as PA.

Die now

Edit: not literally. But... symbolically. Or something

Something interesting: so far, every time a chunk of Marion County has come in, it's made the county as a whole stronger for Obama.

Yeah, isn't that what usually happens in the Indianpolis Congressional District [qm].

Some interesting results so far anyway; been busy with other things so I've not been commenting.

Clinton should probably drop out after this. Just saying.

Doubt it even if she were to lose IN, which she won't. Not with all that fertile terrain in WV and KY

If she can't win in South Bend, frankly...

(of course I don't think that she will drop out, but that's not the point)

Brown County flipped to Clinton.

Aesthetically unappealing Angry

By only 18 votes, too.

I think I'm ready to call this for Clinton, 51-49. At the risk of being "Missouried".

"Missouried" sounds like a medical condition. To be more accurate, like the sort I get diagnosed with.

how many votes could Obama net in Lake?

Depends on the graveyard vote.

Well, it's near Chicago Smiley

Btw, has anyone else noticed the relatively low Clinton margins in the coalfield areas [qm]. Interesting and would seem to back up the idea that people increasingly want things to end.

Hamilton is growing at a fair old clip IIRC.

It does not appear there is much action these days with Indiana coal.

There're no pits left in the Rhondda and yet I'd still call it a coalfield area.
