5 PM - Kentucky (8), Indiana (11)

ALL TIMES ARE CENTRAL!

Total available Electoral Votes to this point: 19

Both of these states have polling locations that close at separate times throughout the next hour - some of them at 5 PM Central and others at 6 PM . It's conceivable (and apparently traditional during the last 4 cycles) for the networks to call Indiana, and its 11 electoral votes, for the Republican nominee right away. This will not happen tonight since the city of Gary, IN is in the Chicago market and closes at 6 PM. Make no mistake... Indiana is a RED state. However, the Obama ground game in Indiana is VASTLY superior and that might be enough (with the infusion of Illinois volunteers). Either way, don't expect Indiana to get called anytime soon. Kentucky... who cares. That's 8 votes for McCain.

Totals:
Obama: 0
McCain: 8
(Kentucky)
