I will say this, the last voter in Allegheny County, where Pittsburgh is located, did not vote until about 9:20 PM. Cities have longer lines that rarely are finished when the polls "officially" close, hence Virginia going Democrat after looking red all night.
I'm desperately hoping this is the case.

And yet she assumes that Trump has any grasp of what middle class Americans are facing? This is the argument that drives me the most up a wall. This is a man who was born into wealth, he has never struggled for anything in his entire life. He has absolutely zero grasp of what life is like for 99% of Americans. That people hold that against Clinton (who did not grow up with the kind of privilege Trump had, who only gained it later in life) and don't see it as an issue with Trump...I don't grasp the logical somersaults they're doing to reach that conclusion.
