We just spoke with an Obama campaign -- -- Jen -- now let's get to the Romney campaign communications director -- gets so -- -- -- in Boston feel great to see you thank you.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- We're here -- all kinds of very good and encouraging feedback from the state of Virginia there's a lot of high turnout and most importantly there's a lot of high turnout in areas that are strong for governor Romney in fact.
We're seeing higher turnout now and good Republican areas than we did in 2008.
So we're very confident that we have -- had great shot at winning Virginia tonight.
Ohio's right after that.
The southern part of Ohio rural southern Ohio a place where it.
I -- a bastion for Tea Party folks and -- important to your campaign how's it looking in southern Ohio.
Well we feel very good about -- -- -- here in the last couple of days that you've seen the polls close and it's very close but we think at the end of the day -- is gonna break -- -- As you know governor Romney is is there today in Ohio campaigning in fact we had just expected him to go -- -- at Belmont Massachusetts and and half to about.
Any -- now he's not gonna -- -- all the polls are still open.
He headed out to Ohio and then -- to make another stop in Pennsylvania.
Just because they're not taking anything for -- we don't want to have any regrets tomorrow morning that we can do everything possible and certainly we wound of governor Romney is there today.
I was watching Pennsylvania was great interest yesterday -- went.
When the -- when the Obama can't send out their number one surrogate Bill Clinton to not one but for different stops in Pennsylvania including two in the Philadelphia area.
Then we get the new poll that shows it's basically tied up there.
And then a spokesperson for the Obama camp said it certainly -- I'm thinking is Pennsylvania actually and play if it is you guys are in great shape it.
It's amazing if it's amazing stat I mean really Pennsylvania was not on the -- and then the last couple of cycles.
And really we just started campaigning there last week because we've always had an operation in Pennsylvania.
But we started campaigning there last week because we feel like we do have a real shot at it they've been responding to governor Romney's -- independents have been.
Coming over to governor Romney side that we feel really good about it and pretty Obama campaign today have deployed there tops -- as you say.
They also have of course Joseph Biden there.
I you know this is just that spells trouble for the Obama campaign.
It's been a long road and and I wonder now as it's finally game day.
How you're feeling and if you've had a minute ago quarter ride.
You know this -- it's just been -- an honor and a privilege to work for.
Governor and mrs.
Romney they're just such wonderful people and this is they have been a once in a lifetime experience and just.
Grateful to have had it.
But you know what I think that we're gonna have many more years of governor Romney when he's in the White House.
So I think that all of us they're ready for a little break but it's today and wonderful ride.
Tailgate show as the campaign communications director for governor Romney -- best of luck it's great to see you and thanks so much.
