Early night tomorrow...
 
Indiana polls close at 6:00 PM (have been for years). I'm guessing we'll have a result in time for Hardball....

...and probably another excuse as to why Sanders couldn't get his voters out.

1. I'm pretty sure they will trot out the conspiracy voter fraud thing, yet again.
 
It always sounds so much like freeperville in 2008 and 2012.

"Gore was robbed."

"Kerry was robbed."

"We was robbed."

2. If it was Thursday, they could say they were at the new Captain America movie.
 
And just couldn't fit voting in addition to seeing a flick.

4. Indiana polls close at 6 PM is the start of a new conspiracy as to why Bernie lost

6. Right now, some is probably posting a "HRC & DWS are closing the polls at 6 pm tomorrow!" post.

10. I think it's going to be close
 
There really no way to tell though, the primaries are open on both sides and nobody knows what the Indys are going to do

14. Truthfully, the result doesn't matter
 
If it is close, Bernie makes up no ground and another state is off the board.

12. Remember that it is a double time zone state so all the polls close at 7 Eastern.

16. Per "The Green Papers"
 
Although a portion of this state is in CT, the majority of the polls are closed by the time indicated ET when the networks feel they can project.

13. close at 6 PM?????????? must be more fraud deliberately aimed at bernie

The brooklynite primitive, who has more knowledge stuffed into the fingernail of the little finger on his left hand than do all the Bernie bullies on Skins's island put together, is right; during my own lifetime, Indiana has traditionally closed the polls about mid-supper-time.

It's nothing new, done that way for decades, and so the Bernie bullies can't use that as any excuse.

I've always been curious though, as to why Indiana closes down so early; there was probably a good long-ago reason for it, and it'd be interesting to know.

All registered voters in Indiana are eligible to vote absentee-in-person at the county election board office beginning 28 days before Election Day.
Indiana.gov (http://www.in.gov/sos/elections/2402.htm)

Four weeks of early voting.  Yep, plenty of fraud.

Yeah, I really don't like that; it's too big of a "window" for Democrats to manipulate.

I don't understand why so many Republicans support early voting, voting by mail, absentee voting for the most casual of reasons (there are some reasons, a few, where absentee voting seems okay--but only a few), paperless ballots, voting allowed for a whole 24-hour day.

These are things that help Democrats steal elections.

When the final chapter of the history of the United States is written, I'm sure those future historians will agree that the Democrat party was the most venal and corrupt institution in our history, worse even than organized crime.
