Tim Kaine: Hillary's Biggest Mistake Still Haunts Democrats

Published | Video Starts at 04:20

So I will say I don't think the New York City electorate or even the New Jersey electorate is like the precise match for the American electorate. But here in Virginia, we do have a Republican governor right now. We will elect Republicans. I think Virginia's electorate is kind of similar to North Carolina and Georgia, maybe a little bit similar to Ohio and Pennsylvania. Some of the states we have to win to win the Senate, we have to win electoral votes there if we're going to win the presidency in 28. (04:20–04:28)
