Now, as I said a few minutes ago, I don’t usually buy into conspiracy theories, but when somebody can’t answer a simple question about why Lake County didn’t start reporting its results earlier, I grow suspicious.

A couple minutes ago, CNN’s John King asked Gary, Indiana mayor Rudy Clay three times why Lake County hasn’t been reporting its results incrementally throughout the night, and Clay would not give a straight answer. Not a reasoning, not a “I don’t know,” just a “We’re counting 11,000 early votes.”

Why can’t they release the machine votes as they get them? I don’t understand it. Come on, Clay. All you had to say is “I don’t know.” That. is. all!
