Please note these observations are made at nearly 11:00 pm standard time and may be totally different in the morning.
If these were the only states voting, all hail president trump (and we live near the Canadian border/maybe we can immigrate? Eeek!).
You can view the link - the numbers are still updating. I will recheck in the morning.

(10,559 posts)It is still not looking like a crushing there.
It looks like Hillary does well in states that will go Republican in the general election solely based on turnout.
I will look again in the morning.
