Tommorrow, voters in Texas, Ohio, Vermont and Rhode Island will go to the polls to select nominees for their respective parties. The Republican race is mathematically out of reach for Governor Huckabee and many are saying that without a strong showing from Senator Clinton the Democratic nomination might be sealed up.

With the fate of the Democratic race in the balance many will be glued to the network coverage as they analyze recent polling data, exit polls and raw vote totals to make their calls on who will be the winner in each of the states.

The first state to close will be Vermont. Former Boston Red Sox Catcher Carlton Fisk, a native of Bellows Falls, VT can tune into WCAX TV-3 in Burlington to see the election results at 7:00pm. Vermont has 17 delegates up for grabs on the Democratic Side.

Polls will close at the bottom of the hour in the Buckeye State. Hall of Fame Third Baseman, Mike Schmidt, a Dayton native, can check out Dayton's news source, WKEF to hear how Ohio's 85 delegates will break out.

Polls in Texas close at 7:00pm Central Standard Time (8:00pm on the East coast). Lynn Nolan Ryan, Jr., Major League Baseball's all time leader in Strikeouts and No-Hitters can watch election results with his wife, the former Ruth Holdorff on KXAN to see who will get the majority of the Lone Star states 193 pledged delegates.

The final poll closing of the night will be in "The Ocean State" where, if he hadn't passed away in 1959, Hall of Famer Nap Lajune, a native of Woonsocket, Rhode Island could watch the allocation of Rhode Island's 17 delegates at 9:00pm on WPRI.
