Big Voter Turnout in DC....

DC Election spokesman Bill O'field assured me they do have enough paper ballots to complete the primary process tonight.

The turnout has been at least twice that of past Presidential primaries say Precinct Captains at Shepherd Elementary and Mann Elementary in Northwest where officials ran out of paper ballots by midday. More ballots were delivered as they braced for the biggest number of voters this evening after working hours.

Draper elementary in Southeast also ran out of paper forcing voters to go to the Touch Screen computer. Every precinct has one touch screen. Seniors especially don't like the computer card and screen.

I'll be live on 9 News Now at Eleven from the Madison Hotel Tuesday night where Obama supporters are set to celebrate. Their candidate should win by a big margin, judging by what I saw at the polls today and talking with people after they cast ballots.

Political analyst Ron Walters told me in the newsroom this evenng that he expects Obama to run the table from here on out--winning DC, Maryland..... and Virginia would be a big win he says...and then take Texas, Ohio and Wisconsin. He doesn't think the Democrats will arrive at the convention in Denver undecided on a candidate. Others disagree.

In some parts of the District today at polling places I couldn't find Hillary Clinton Volunteers. News reports have her all but giving up on the local primaries and preparing to make a stand in Texas and Ohio.

McCain is the heavy favorite in the Republican primaries, here.

There are 37 democratic delegates and 19 Republicans. It's not winner take all--the delegates are awarded proportionately.
