Certified Final Vote Tally in Indiana: More Funny Math for Clinton?

Hillary Clinton: 637,814 / 50.4%
Barack Obama: 626,642 / 49.6%
Diff. = 11,152 votes (less than 1 %) [MORE]

uh, huh So What happened in Lake County Again?
From BlackBoxVoting[HERE] and [HERE] and [HERE] In April 2008 at least 1.1 million voter registrations in Indiana had been changed or cancelled. One quarter-million of them come from just two northwestern Indiana counties: Lake and Porter. Lake County reports purging 137,164 voters and neighboring Porter County cancelled out 124,958 voters.  Lake County, the state's second most populous with nearly 500,000 people and the home of Gary, Indiana, which has one of the heaviest concentrations of African-American voters in the country (and it borders on Obama's home district in Chicago). Lake County reported partial results and delays several hours after the polls closed as a large number of absentee ballots and a record turnout delayed the tallies. If we are to believe the presumed results, Obama won 56% to 43% in Lake County.  [MORE]

A post on BlackBox notes: The first time I saw results posted for Lake County (with 28% reporting), it was about 75% Obama and 25% Clinton. As the evening went on, that number dropped to 55% Obama and 45% Clinton. It amazes me how the last 3/4 of the votes counted favored Clinton, when the first 1/4 heavily favored Obama. I extrapolated the data with 28% reporting, and saw that Obama should easily make up the 20,000 votes he was behind at the time. Clearly at some point in the evening the votes in this county took a huge swing towards Clinton, at which point CNN projected Hillary to win. Did anyone capture the time slices at which the vote tallies in Lake County were updated? 

Of the time slices I captured throughout the evening, until 10:50pm (Indiana time) the Lake County website had yet to report a single vote - then their web server went offline. Captures from the Secretary of State results site through 12:53am (Indiana time) May 7th, indicated no votes.

The first reading I got that actually HAD votes was at 8:05am May 7th at which time the Lake County site was back up and reporting that all Precincts were complete and the report was last updated at 5:22am. (there may have been earlier updates but I didn't capture them - sleeping)
At the same time (8:05am May 7) the Secretary of State site still reported 0 votes with the last update having been at 1:03am on May 7th.

Later on May 7th, Lake County decided to change the name of their Election Summary File and subsequently published their precinct results, which are now included in the latest version of the Indiana Compendium v4.
