1. They're pissing me off, all counties that take this long are on my shit list
Inexcusable that it takes this long to count ballots in 2008.

9. Bob Beckel - Gary (main city in Lake is a how many votes do you need sort of place!
Bob Beckel was just on Fox - joked that in one election campaign he asked the Mayor of Gary how many Democratic votes he was going to get out of the city of Gary. The answer was - how many do you need? Well it is suburban Chicago!

The Clinton campaign are now complaining Gary and the rest of Lake county is deliberately holding back the vote to deny Hillary her victory on the night!

3. MSNBC is now saying that results will not be in until midnight EDT.
Perhaps extremely heavy turnout, highly populated area, later poll closing time might have something to do with it.

Meanwhile, HRC is getting ready to speak. I'm not reading anything into that.
