Results on the flip....
Update I. first numbers in from IN 08, I think these are probably absentee ballots... I am kind of surprised because I thought those polls didn't close until 7 eastern, but holy cow!.... Lugar (80%) is up a lot... as is Steve Buyer at 62% (IN-04) and Dan Burton at 61% (IN-05) who we aren't really tracking. I'm getting my info from WISH TV 8
Update II. Barry in IN-06 coming in.. pretty high, not winning, but good numbers
UPDATE III.... Lugar's been called as a winner
UPDATE IV... THEY JUST CALLED IN 08 FOR US!!! WHOO HOO
UPDATE V... THEY JUST CALLED DONNELLY FOR US... IN-02
UPDATE VI... THEY JUST CALLED HILL FOR US... IN-09 Here's the deal ... we heard from the Hill campaign that they are up 20 votes WITHOUT Monroe county, which we know is breaking 64/31 for Hill, and the only other small county out there should be about even. This is OURS....
FOX NEWS CALLS BARON HILL NOW.. ITS OFFICIAL
Update VII... They've now called IN-07 for Julia Carson -- thus concluding all the Indiana races that we were watching. I'll update the final numbers, but there we go kids.
Hoosier Dems are celebrating tonight
