With 99% of precincts reporting, Hillary Clinton has beaten Barack Obama in the Indiana Democratic primary by about 22,000 votes, with roughly 638,000 to Obama's roughly 615,000 votes (which, incidentally, is a shitload for the Indiana Democratic primary no matter how you see things).
However, some 1 in 10 Indiana voters claimed they were Republican.
Ten percent of 640,000 is 64,000. If, say, 64,000 Republicans showed up and voted for Clinton today, as Rush Limbaugh has encouraged, then we're talking about a game-changer.
By contrast, only Democrats and unaffiliated voters were allowed to vote in North Carolina, where Obama won handily.
So tell me again why Indiana allows Republicans to vote in the Democratic primary?
