5. I think the polls are closed in part of the state

Texas cuts across 2 time zones.

6. polls are closed in most of the state

This will be for the Primary. The Caucus will add to Obama's lead,.

10. That is what happened to Blackwell for Governor in Ohio, it was lopsided

so it was called relatively early

[democrattotheend]

14. Polls are still open in the western part of the state

So they can't call it, but they can start posting results as they come in.

[roseBudd]

18. they don't call, they project and it's based on exit polling and demographic data

[nadinbrzezinski]

11. hmm looks like exit polls

and in my view it should be illegal. Not until the polls close should anybody post any of this data

That said, it looks ugly for HRC

(disclaimer, I take no side on this)

[Orangepeel]

13. Texas is in two different time zones. Does that matter?

I grew up in Texas, but I left before I could vote. :D

[blonndee]

15. This is probably early voting and can change dramatically. n/t

[UndertheOcean]
