What Went Down In The Indiana Primary

Note that Kasich’s numbers did collapse at the end — he only has 9 percent of the Republican vote so far — suggesting that there was some tactical voting on the GOP side. None of it matters when the winner gets 50 percent.

We now have 9 percent of the vote in for both the Democratic and Republican side. Trump’s lead is holding at 20 percentage points. The Republican side looks like it’s going to be a blowout at this point. The race is far closer on the Democratic side, with Clinton up 4 percentage points. Clinton is doing very well in the pre-election-day vote, while Sanders is doing far better in the ballots that were cast today. That said, a lot of vote is still out in Gary and Indianapolis, both of which should be strong Clinton areas.
