What? Who's calling Indiana? Weirdly, Wayne County (home of Earlham) is having "glitches" and isn't reporting any votes yet. WTF?

CNN hasn't colored it blue, but they have 100% reporting, including Wayne County. Obama's ahead by 15,000, so I think we may be safe. ;-)

Edit: Okay, they dropped it to 99% reporting - but the missing bits are from Lake County, not Wayne.

They're only showing 99% right now. Jasper Co. (just south of Lake) is only at 72%. A couple of others have a few outstanding.

INORITE?! Kevin has a ridiculously conservative/stupid coworker who has been consoling himself with, "Even if Obama wins, at least I know Indiana will vote for the right guy." I am sorely, sorely tempted to bake up some blue Indiana-shaped cookies tonight so Kevin can rub it in in a cruelly sweet way tomorrow...

Hee! The news channels color states depending on whether they go Republican or Democrat, and Indiana has ALWAYS (well, since 1964) been Republican (red) except this time! So blue state = the majority voted Democrat. :-D
