African-Americans have trooped out to vote for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton as the race to get into the White House tightens between her and Republican rival Donald Trump.
All the African-Americans interviewed by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) at Hampton and Newport News Voter Registrar office, said they voted for Clinton with some preferring anonymity.
There were more women and aged turnout, with many of the aged in wheelchairs and some assisted by their children.
Tiffani Willams, 18, a first-time voter, said the voting process at the absentee voter location in Newport News was smooth as she waited between five and 10 minutes to vote.
“I voted Hillary. I’m praying that Hillary gets into office. I don’t support Trump’s views in relation to the U.S. border or war,” she said.
Another African-American voter, Shawntry Williams, said “I’m a Hillary supporter but I’m weary and I’m worried that people may not take this election seriously enough as they should,” she said.
