NBC News Exit Poll in Virginia: Why So Close for Clinton?

More than six in 10 Virginian voters are bothered by Hillary Clinton's use of private email.

Virtually all Trump voters said they were bothered by Clinton's use of a private email server while she was U.S. Secretary of State. But a sizable minority of Clinton voters were bothered, as well. About a third of Clinton voters in Virginia were bothered at least some by her use of private email.

But helping Clinton is the fact that she is holding her own with veterans and those serving in the U.S. military, a group that typically votes reliably for Republicans. And more Virginians think she would be the better commander in chief and better able to handle foreign policy.

North Carolina Republican Sen. Richard Burr Wins Reelection

Sen. Richard Burr will win reelection, NBC News projects, pulling out a win in a tough battle with Democrat Deborah Ross.

With polls tight up until Election Day, even operatives in Burr's own party were privately unsure about his chances after he ran what many Republicans said was a frustratingly lackluster and flat-footed campaign. But the typically red lean of the state proved to be too much for Ross, who, as a former state rep and head of the state's ACLU chapter, was attacked as too liberal by Republicans.

'Rural America is basically screaming at us'

Clinton is running out of runway in Florida to win the state, NBC's Chuck Todd says.

"I don't see the path forward for her in Florida," Todd said on NBC News.

He added this nugget: "The last time a democrat lost Florida and won the White House was Bill Clinton."

"Rural America is basically screaming at us, 'stop overlooking us!'" Todd said.

Veteran NBC anchor added, "What we underestimated was the depth of the anger."

Ivanka Trump Posts Photo of Family Watching Results at Trump HQ

Ivanka Trump tweeted out a photo of her family and and GOP vice presidential nominee Mike Pence anxiously watching election results roll in.

The Trump family, including Tiffany Trump and her husband Jared Kushner, Donald Trump Jr. and Trump HQ staffers had concentrated faces on while watching the action.

Donald Trump held on to his granddaughter as he watched the results.

All Eyes on Florida

Donald Trump's team and political watchers are in agreement: All eyes are on Florida.

Sources close to Donald Trump's war room says the focus is "all Florida right now."

With 95 percent of the vote in, there is about a 100,000 vote difference between Trump and Clinton, with Trump in the lead right now.

While Clinton is doing well in cities, Trump is over performing in rural and exurban areas.

Trump must win Florida if he wants a chance to win 270 electoral votes, and the campaign is very "encouraged."
