Polls close in Indiana, no call yet

The last open polls in Indiana closed just now, at 7 p.m. EDT. No calls from the networks yet, though -- CNN and MSNBC are both characterizing the race in the state as "too early to call."

North Carolina's polls close at 7:30 p.m. EDT.

Update: A couple readers have asked whether the parts of Indiana that are in the Central time zone are still voting -- they're not. The official poll closing time statewide is 6 p.m., so while much of the state closed at 6 p.m. EDT, the parts in the Central time zone closed at 7 p.m. EDT. (A couple precincts did stay open due to voting glitches.)

How the military analyst program controlled news coverage: in the Pentagon's own words
"We develop a core group from within our media analyst list of those that we can count on to carry our water. They become the key go to guys for the networks and it begins to weed out the less reliably friendly analysts by the networks themselves."
