Somber scenes at Clinton's NYC election night party

After a confident beginning to the night, scenes are very somber now at Clinton's NYC election night party at the Javits center.

Fox News' Serafin Gomez reports that after people had been seen crying, supporters In the audience are full out sobbing. People have also started leaving although many are still remaining to support their candidate.

Clinton aides had previously told Fox News they were expecting a "long night."

Meanwhile, a Clinton aide tells the pool that Clinton is "up here watching returns." No more information was given.

Just a few hours ago, Clinton's Twitter account tweeted out this downbeat message.

Hillary Clinton
@HillaryClinton
This team has so much to be proud of. Whatever happens tonight, thank you for everything.
Don't you feel sorry for them?

They are saying MN may fall too....

However, if Trump wins AZ and AK then she has to take everything else to tie at 269; however, I'm told the 1 vote in Maine is almost certain to go to Trump.

So.........

Alaska, NH and Arizona would seal the deal.

If I'm not mistaken, a tie at 269 would go to the Senate for the tiebreak. And the Dems don't control the Senate. ;-)

Long live the 2ndA, each time Dems go with Anti-gun Anti-2ndA agenda they lose. Aren't they so stupid to learn from Billy the sleazy?

According to Karl Rove, 1928 was the last time a Republican president took office when the party controlled both the House and the Senate. If, if it happens, I have two words: Supreme Court. Those little pieces of paper called the Constitution were on the precipice; I surely hope this happens and the Constitution lives on.
