BBC coverage says 48.9 Clinton to 48.4 Trump (2.7 other) with 1.7% of districts called.
This constitutes 2.9 million votes, no idea what Florida's electorate is.


Yep, sorry, poor wording. My brain is like everywhere and fighting a bad cold. ;)

It's way too aerly. But almost all counties are either the same as 2012 (less Hispanic ones) or better than 2012 (more Hispanic ones) for Clinton.

She's doing great in Orange County, which is crucial.

It'll be interesting to see how he performs outside of Utah.


Would be nice to gauge anti-Trump GOP support outside of it, but probably won't be as obvious as Utah.

With 1% reporting, Vermont is going to Clinton according to NBC.
