Hostettler's been toast for weeks now.

8. Indiana "Bloody Eighth" Congressional District.

It'll be a Dem pickup if Ellsworth throws Hostetter out. Ellsworth's got 70% to Hostetters 30% with 12% of the vote in.

Ellsworth's a former Sheriff of Vanderburgh County (Evansville). Hostetter's a gun toting, anti-immigrant Libertarian type Republican.

7. Evansville area 8th district

John Hostettler is a super-fundy Repub who's held the seat for 4 or 5 terms now. Dumber than owl shit, too.

10. I voted for Ellsworth today!

I'd give anything to get rid of that piece of shit Hostettler. I can't stand him or his knuckle dragging followers.

I bet the race tightens though. By the end of the night I bet it isn't even a 10 point spread.

13. Me too....gotta love this one!

12. Looks good

but it is a very divided district. If you break it down most of those totals are from Vigo County (Terre Haute) which is strongly democratic, as is Evansville. The problem is, the rest of the district is very red. Those numbers are great, but won't be indicative of the whole district.

15. Ellsworth up 64-36 with 26% reporting!

16. I almost think it's safe to say he's won.
