I checked in this morning to see the final tally, only to learn they're still stuffing the ballots.
Please fix typo in headline
Great to see Obama hasn’t changed his ways...
Things missed at the polls:

Update:
Marion County Clerk, Beth White, spoke with Election Journal about this controversial video. She said,
I am aware of what happened in the polling location and we informed the precinct Election Inspector that this was prohibited activity and must not continue.

Hmmm...

Time to pull out the Obama voter fraud cases... should come in handy.
The margin’s not enough to really help Her Thighness, yet she soldiers on.
It’s time for her to call Larry Flynt.
Thank you again, Rush Limbaugh! Operation Chaos has ben a total military victory for the Free Republicans of America!
Clinton squeaks by Obama in Indiana
EXCERPT
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton squeaked out a critical razor-thin victory in Indiana’s presidential primary Tuesday but lost North Carolina’s primary, a split decision that left her no closer to overcoming Sen. Barack Obama in the race for the Democratic nomination.
With 99 percent of the votes counted, Clinton was clinging to a narrow 51 percent to 49.percent lead. Only about 22,000 votes out of about 1.2.million cast separated her and Obama.
The brakes were slammed on, though, as the state, and the nation, waited for late returns from Lake County, which withheld its results throughout the night. Lake County had been considered Obama territory. It’s next to his hometown of Chicago, and its large black population was expected to overwhelmingly vote for him.
Indiana Democratic Party Chairman Dan Parker, a Clinton supporter, called it “typical Lake County politics.”
State Sen. Earline Rogers, D-Gary, and Gary Mayor Rudy Clay, who also is Lake County Democratic Party chairman, said nothing nefarious was happening. It’s standard in Lake County to count all the ballots, including absentees, before releasing results, Rogers said.
“We just want to be sure all of our votes are counted,” Clay said.
Me too. Irritating.
There’s no way the election inspector wasn’t completely aware it’s illegal to do that. Thanks for the video, BTW. VERY informative.
Things sound pretty chaotic in Lake County. ;)
There is more than one reason why Gary Indiana is considered to be the armpit of America.
