After what seems to be the most drawn-out, filthy presidential campaign in history, it all comes down to election night: Tuesday, November 8, 2016.
Both major political parties are holding their election night events in New York City. Clinton campaign headquarters are hosting their election night event at the Javits Center. The Trump campaign are hosting their election night at The Midtown Hilton. So those are the two locations in NYC you may want to flock to (or avoid) depending on the outcome and your politics.
