GOP Fails to Pick Up IN-7

Written by Sam on March 11th, 2008

Well, Jon Elrod gave it a good shot and he was a great candidate, but it looks like he is going to come up short tonight.  With 325 of 445 precincts reporting, Democrat Andre Carson is leading with 53% of the vote to Elrod’s 44%.  It got close for a little bit when the two were almost neck and neck at 49-47, but it’s widening out again.  Overall, not a bad showing for an inner city district.

    Is Elrod running again in November for this seat?

    I don’t know, but if Obama is at the top of the ticket I don’t think we’ll be able to pick it up because this is a city district and turn out among blacks will be exceedingly higher than normal.
