Any freepers from Indiana? Any stories from the ground?
They kept giving me a dem key card for the voting machine! I nearly had a heart attack when I saw my choices were Bernie and Hills! They did this two times! The third key card presented the republican ballot. Whew.
Sure... Hamilton county. Went to vote at 1:30. Asked about turnout, and at least at my polling place turnout was 30% at 1:30. Normal primary turnout is between 14 and 16%, so its going to be a huge turnout. (Most people vote after work). Seen 3 Cruz signs and one silly woman with a Cruz Fiorina button. Seen literally hundreds of Trump yard signs. IMHO someone is getting slaughtered tonight. I would not in the least be surprised if Trump exceeds 60%.
I am. But I vote in a small rural town. Voted about 3 and while there was no line, the 2 machines were keeping busy.
I’m in and work the most conservative counties in the state, and I have yet to see my first Cruz yard sign.
Several for Trump and more and more of them just went up in the last week or so.
I worry that Todd Youngs Chamber of Commerce and McConnell smear campaign against Stutzman may be effective.
They outspent him at least 10-1 with out and out lies about his voting and personal history.
I was at the voting location around 3:30. I had maybe a 10 minute wait max, but the line was longer when I finished than when I went in. Small town of 10,000. Two machines were constantly busy. Because crossover is allowed in Indiana, I took notice that there were a lot of R tags in people’s hands. What was interesting to me was the gentleman in front of me, speaking to the poll worker. He mentioned that he hadn’t voted in a number of years, and didn’t know how to use these new-fangled machines. (I was told they are at least 10 years old, if not older.) I’m guessing it had been at least 15 years since he had voted. He was probably 75-80 years old and wore overalls, so I’m guessing a farmer of sorts. Plenty of small farms around here. The poll worker said most young people kept trying to vote by touching the screen instead of the button next to someone’s name. Everyone was very pleasant.
Voted at about 5. No line. We were the only ones voting at the time. Small town.
