In the NC senate race in 2010, Burr was ahead by 12.8 points. In the IL race for president in 2016, Clinton was ahead by 11.5 points.

The NC senate race in 2010 was too close to call and the IL presidential race in 2016 was called for Clinton at 8 pm when the polls closed. Does anyone have an idea why?


Chicago was already too dicey for Trump by that point, whereas the vote in Charlotte and The Triangle hadn't proved to be underwhelming for Marhsall.

Cities are slow counters. Simple as that.
