Its Election Day….Finally!

Election day is finally here after the longest presidential race the country has ever seen. With all the rumors of voter fraud and predictions of trouble at the polls, how is the democratic process faring in reality? From reporters in swing states and reporters right here in Southern California, we look at the candidates, the turnout, the props and the problems. What’s the mood like on the ground? Are voters having problems at the polls? Did young voters turn out as promised? We bring you all the big news on the big day.
