I think they know Barack's gonna surge at the end once those college towns come in. Also, he's apparently leading in smaller towns by 2 to 1.

There are more than 5000 registered Dem and Indy voters in Durham and none have been counted yet.

4. I think you may be right
Still waiting for Hanover county to come in, and that could flip the lead to Obama.

:crazy:

10. there isn't a Hanover County- do you mean the county
that Hanover is a town in? or the Town of Hanover?

I do believe Obama will be the winner- but that it's going to be close

5. I think if she has a 3% lead at about 90% of the precincts in
they'll call it.

7. I Agree!
Obama will pass Clinton as the rural counties report their votes.

9. No but that doesn't matter
If Hillary loses by 2-3 points, it's still an amazing come back and it'll be seen as a win. Obama fans helped create this idea that they had unstoppable momentum. No such thing and, having watched the "inevitability meme" play out for the other side, they should have known better, IMHO.

12. Flipping through the CNN results
I see no such rural voter preference. I've seen plenty of places both have won, and unless you point to a couple of really small places with <150 voters, it would be hard to make a case for 2 to 1 for Obama.
