I lived in Far Rockway and Rego Park. My dad owned a candy store in Jamaica. I suspect HRC wins those precincts 2-1 or better.

a modest line at check in but seemed to be going smoothly.

When we moved into the neighborhood in 2010 it was almost all African-Americans voting. This morning was 75% white folks.
