So I waited in line for four hours. There were two machines, and one was broken. However, i wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else. Harlem was EXCITED. No one got upset, or left the line, or complained. People were taking pictures, smiling, laughing. Also, I saw our rep Charles Rangel and the Tuskegee Airman who lives on my street. A few of the foreign journalists hanging around (there were a bunch) interviewed him. No matter what the results say tomorrow, it felt epic.

Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut.
To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

Doesn't seem the outcome is going to be remotely close. Wish I was still living in Chicago. They are having one hell of a party.
