Democrat Pramila Jayapal just became the first Indian-American elected to Congress, having won Washington state's 7th district, according to the Associated Press.
From VOA's Katherine Gypson in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, one of the states still too close to call: Dejected Clinton supporters who had filled a downtown Philly bar earlier in the evening chanting "I'm with her," were silent as the final rounds of state calls came through. They appeared stunned as the restaurant closed down. Downtown Philadelphia was quiet after midnight. One of the few bars still filled was in the Ritz Carlton Hotel, where one Trump supporter wearing a Make America great Again hat said he had predicted a landslide victory for his candidate. Another Trump supporter said it was time for America to unite behind Trump. Outside, a valet named Lance, who said he had worked at the hotel for 18 years, wondered what would be next for people like him. He said everyone knew Clinton wasn't the right candidate and that possibly Trump's business experience would turn out to be a good thing for the country.
