Last night’s results were off from what most polls showed leading up to Election Day. Virginia is one of the only states to stay the predicted course, though it was closer than anticipated.
Kelsea Pieters talks with Christopher Newport University Political Science professor Quentin Kidd about what happened.
Among the Republicans celebrating a successful Election Night is former Virginia Governor and presidential candidate Jim Gilmore. Gilmore also says the tight race in Virginia speaks for the whole country – that people need change and voted for change. Gilmore only endorsed Donald Trump this September, but maintains he’s optimistic about the country’s future with Trump at the helm. And, along with the rest of the country, he was surprised by the results.
