Here’s the latest from the campaign trail. Turnout continues to be high amongst Democrat voters and low amongst Republicans. Also, the word on the street is that the Barack Obama campaign is challenging some voters across the state. One of the latest is in Franklin 13 at the Lutheran High School where 10 voters were […]
If you’re planning to vote after work today leave a little early. Marion County Clerk Beth White said the voting has been pretty heavy this morning and will likely be so this afternoon. White said the voting in some parts of the city has been heavier than it was in the 2004 general election. In […]
I’m noticing a trend this morning, for what it’s worth. Republicans who are crossing over and voting for Hillary Clinton are also voting for Jill Long Thompson and Woody Myers for Congress. They say they are doing it to stick it to the Democratic establishment. It may not be enough to make a difference, but […]
Today is the primary. You know what to do so go do it. Here are my predictions about today’s outcome and the reasons behind them. You’re welcome to add your own.

He reminded the audience why he was […]
The program is running late, no big surprise. These things always happen. DNC Chairman Howard Dean has just taken the stage. He continues to stress the message of unity. He says Democrats will win, regardless of who the party nominates. Dean says Democrats have a chance to win in places where they haven’t won before. […]
DNC Chairman Howard Dean was supposed to take the stage now, but he didn’t, Hillary Clinton did. She came out with thunderous applause and Mellencamp’s “Our Country.” Her voice seemed raspy from a long day of talking. Hillary told her fellow Democrats that Hoosiers are the kind of people that keep the country going and it was […]
Indiana Democrats’ favorite son is on stage now, Evan Bayh. He got the best opening so far. While speaking, he stressed a message of unity. Bayh said although some in the audience have come to support either Hillary or Barack, either could do a better job George W. Bush. Bayh said Indiana was flyover country […]
