I just heard some amazing news: early counts our of Indiana have 
Obama well ahead. It's a conservative state and was expected to go 
McCain as he has been polling ahead by a few points. The early 
booths, as we say here in Australia, they're called precincts in the 
US, are from the conservative parts of the state rather than the 
black areas near Chicago.

The local Australian commercial channels start up in 15 minutes.
