How will Nassau and Suffolk vote?  Will Trump top Romney in both, or will he lose ground in Nassau (with its Jewish/Asian/educated professional demographic outweighing the pro-Trump swing among Italians?)

Trump will most likely win Suffolk county, lose Nassau county, and lose Long Island overall.

So looks like LI voted for Trump, but he lost Nassau.

Can only read part of this article:

From the article:
     
In Nassau, Trump won the reliably Republican Oyster Bay by 12 points, but fell to Clinton in Hempstead, North Hempstead and in Long Beach and Glen Cove. Clinton fared best in Long Beach, where she won by 17 points, and North Hempstead, where she got 57 percent of the vote compared with Trump’s 43 percent.

Trump dominated Brookhaven, Suffolk’s largest town, beating Clinton by 18-points, powered by working class hamlets such as Shirley and Rocky Point. He won Smithtown, a GOP stronghold, by 28 points. He ran up a 20-point margin in Riverhead, and won Southold, on the North Fork, by 10 points.

Trump’s strength in Suffolk extended to more Democratic areas such as Huntington, where he edged Clinton by half-a-percentage point. His only Suffolk losses came in Babylon, a Democratic area, where he fell 3/10ths of a point short, and in Southampton, where Clinton won by two points, and East Hampton, where she had a 28 percentage point margin.
