The North Carolina and Indiana primaries (UPDATE 10: BO GIVES VICTORY SPEECH)

**bump to the top** this post will continue to be on the top of the announce throughout the evening, and will be oftentimes updated. the most late-model updates will be at the top of the post.**

Update 11 - 9:47 PM: I’m logging off for the night, and will follow up on the post-election coverage in the a.m. Keep your eye on Indiana - looks like it’s going down to the wire. Apologies for the loading problems happening with the site tonight. This has gotten beyond frustrating (the site was down earlier today, too).

Update 10 - 9:30 PM: Obama is currently giving his victory speech in NC (which I have muted). The story of the night is that this is not the night Clinton would have liked to have. She’ll likely win IN, but not by double digits - certainly not decisive, while Obama is handily winning in NC (thanks in no small part to the black vote). Make sure to read this post, and scroll down to where it reads “How Obama won N.C., by the numbers.”

Update 9 - 8:30 PM: Clinton’s lead in Indiana has shrank from around 16% to 10%, with 50% reporting. Fox News hasn’t called it yet, but CBS is calling IN for Hillary.

Update 8 - 7:44 PM: Here’s another good place to check for NC voting results (h/t: The Fred Smith blog).

Fox News just reported that some precincts will be open til 8 in Indiana due to “ballot shortages.”

In NC, a double digit win ahead for BO?

Update 7 - 7:31 PM: Fox News calls NC for Obama.

Update 6 - 7:26 PM: Per AP, half of registered Democrats in Indiana said Rev. Wright’s comments were a factor in their vote. 70% of those voted for Clinton. Polls close in 3 minutes in NC.

Update 5 - 7:03 PM: Fox’s Meghan Kelly just noted the per exit polling, more Republicans voted for Hillary in IN than they did BO. Don’t know the percentage of R’s that voted in the Dem primary but is should be interesting to find out. NC polls close in 27 minutes.

Update 4 - 6:56 PM: Here was the line I saw this morning as I went to vote. It was probably 100 deep at 7:15 AM.

The Charlotte Observer’s Primary blog says that voter turnout in Meck. County (where Charlotte is) supposedly is “not especially heavy” but that record turnout is expected for the state, according to the state’s top election official.

All polls will be closed in IN in just a few minutes.

Update 3 - 6:34 PM: Per HuffPo’s sources, some early exit poll results indicate Obama may win by around 12% in NC, and Hillary possibly winning in IN between 5 and 7% (via Jim Geraghty). Marc Ambinder looks at more exit poll info and writes in response, “Forget the horse race numbers for a moment: if the surveys are accurate, the polarization within the Democratic Party has reached critical levels.”
