1. STOP CELEBRATING
This is just one Mayor who doesnt know what any other place in the state will do.

11. I think he said "Gary went overwhelmingly for Obama"
So they're counting carefully, I assume.

10. Is this before or after the Gary votes have been counted?!
Sorry - just a comment Bob Beckel made earlier. He recalled one campaign when he asked the then Mayor of Gary how many votes he was going to get from the town - the reply was how many do you need.

And what about the rest of Lake county?

30. The mayor stated, via a blog article, that there was a huge Obama turnout in Gary.
Edited on Tue May-06-08 10:51 PM by myrna minx
This may be true, but they did not say that that Obama won Indiana. They did just report that the gap has narrowed to 2% between Clinton and Obama.

25. Gary is not Indiana
We all knew Gary would go to Obama. Doesn't mean he won Indiana.

26. Link:
http://blog.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/05/06/gary_mayor_predicts_possible_i.html

But it sounds more like speculation that cold hard facts. And, even as an Obama supporter, this is weird and it makes me cringe a little.

35. Lake County: 28% reporting, 75% (27,991) Obama, 25% (9,470) Clinton
Over 18,000 votes in Clinton's lead just vanished.
