Turnout is very high in Pittsburgh.

Good for Clinton

Heavy Pittsburgh turnout would be good for Clinton. Heavy turnout in the T (Scranton excepted) would be good for Sanders

Hillary's campaign must be pretty confident in PA considering they're holding their victory party here. If there was any shred of doubt I'd imagine she'd be in Maryland.

Anyway, just voted Clinton/Sestak/Shapiro.

Yup, her internals show her up double digits in PA for her to be throwing the victory party in Philly. She would be in Baltimore if she weren't confident in PA

As expected, long lines in Providence. Whether its because of turnout or the closing of polling stations still remains to be seemed.

Providence is where Clinton is expected to do the best in RI. However they could be Brown U or Providence College students who would favor Sanders

Kristen Welker at NBC News tweets:

"A top Dem official tells me turnout is strong in Philadelphia, particularly in areas w/large African-American populations."

Dan Merica at CNN tweets:

"Clinton's top aides are confident they will win at least four of five states tonight, eyeing RI as Sanders' best chance."

Their internals must be showing some good numbers for them. The Clinton camp have been the first group to downplay expectations.

Not just internals...that is based on actual votes. Both campaigns have people on the ground who track who votes for who and report numbers up to HQ. This is not even a new thing, it goes back decades

Maryland is going to be an epic ass-kicking by Clinton with those #s

Oh yeah, since I don't think anyone mentioned this yet...that black number in MD could potentially cause an upset in the Senate primary.

Edwards has a very good chance, yes
