When voters make their choice,they will also close out an election in which women fill been at the middle of nearly every conversation.
Hillary Clinton’s candidacy and the unprecedented election in which she has competed fill inspired nearly every reaction on the spectrum: jubilation, relief, or apathy,disdain, misogyny, and outrage. nowadays on this blog,we’re going to capture a slice of how American women are reacting as Clinton attempts to make history."I #DedicateTheVote to all the suffragettes who worked hard to make sure we got a vote." pic.twitter.com/iqNjbJa7HY Related: Glass ceiling watch: will America elect its first woman president? 10.55pm GMTIn five minutes, polls close in most of Indiana and about half of Kentucky (the parts of each state in the eastern time zone). We may obtain results within the next hour. They won’t command us SO much. But Vigo County, or Indiana,has predicted the presidential winner correctly every time since 1956.

And Romney won Indiana as a whole by 10.5%. 10.52pm GMTPreliminary exit polling data is out and some of it reinforces the information we already had. Many voters fill a negative view of the candidates - one in five Clinton voters said they mainly oppose the other candidate,and 27% of Trump supporters said the same.Crucially, turnout rates among Republicans, and Democrats and Independents look like they’ll be comparable to 2012 based on this very early information. whether current polling predictions hold real and turnout rates remain relatively consistent,that could work in Clinton’s favor.
The early exits are here. Two big things to remember:[br]--early exit polls are not very good.
--final exit polls are not very good.Early exit poll facts: you shouldn't trust em. And you're still going to look at em anyway. 9.55pm GMTHello and welcome to our live-wire coverage of election night 2016. whether you’re wondering how the US presidential race is going to turn out, you’ve approach to the proper status.
