As we see in the case of CA every election. That does not mean we do not know the results of most of the elections in CA before "every vote" is counted. This election we may have dozens of states who don't have "every vote" counted for many weeks. So her quote was wrong even with all the context. Durbin knew her full quote. He was right and Clinton was wrong.
