Our poll watchers are reporting a record turnout in Indy's west side.

Maybe just anecdotal at this time but Speedway High School which usually has 200-250 voters for the entire day is reporting 600+ with 90 minutes until the polls close.

Other area precincts are reporting similar numbers.

1. What about that Lake County area that all those votes came in for Obama

during the primary?

[Jokerman]

5. Gary Post Tribune say turnout is heavy.

Don't have the link right now.

They are also on Chicago time, one hour behind the rest of the state so we don't expect their returns before 8 or 9 eastern. They should be very strong dem.

6. MSNBC reporting record turnout in Lake County

just now on MSNBC TV

[Thrill]

9. If true. Likely Indiana will be too close to call at 6

[EconomicLiberal]

2. Indiana polls close at 6:00 PM EST? n/t

[Jokerman]

7. Most a 6 EST, Lake County is on CST so they close an hour later. n/t

3. do you think they'll cut off the line but let people in line finish even if it's after closed? nt

[LisaLynne]

4. If you are in line, they have to let you vote.

But, yeah, you have to be in line before the polls close.

[Muttocracy]

8. well, that's good I guess - hope people know the cutoff and don't give up...

and maybe some people can let others (elderly, people with kids, people who need to get home earlier) cut in line.

10. Do you want to be the one who gets to tell all those people in line to

turn around and go home?





















Didn't think so.

:evilgrin:

[Muttocracy]

11. certainly not - but I assume some official has to stand at the end of the line

or something - maybe put up one of those "sorry, lane closed" signs from the grocery store.
