If Romney wins Vigo County, he should be well on the way to the White House. Its voted with the national winner all but two times since 1892.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigo_County,_Indiana

“The county is one of the best bellwether regions for voting U.S. presidential elections; it has voted for the winning candidate in every election since 1956 and in all but two elections since 1892. It continued the trend in 2008, voting for Illinois Senator Barack Obama by a 16-point margin.

Holmes is part of Indiana’s 8th congressional district, which is held by Republican Larry Bucshon.”

Vigo County voter here. It is one of the stronger Democrat areas of the state actually, so if Romney wins here, it IS significant, IMO. Went to my polling place about five till noon today during an early lunch break. People were moving in and out, but it wasn’t crowded and no lines at all, which is actually probably a positive thing.
