If Virginia is too close to call while North Carolina is called for Trump instantly.

There's no way in hell the latter will happen. Former would definitely be worrying though.

Not saying it will, but I'd almost certainly have a meltdown if it did

VA is no doubt solid Hillary, but are we really expecting it to be called at poll closing time? Doesn't NOVA take like 4 hours to report?

No, I don't expect it to be called when the polls close. But there's a big difference between too early to call and too close to call.

Is too early usually due to poor exit polling data? I've been following elections since 2000 but I've never found a real conclusive answer.
