On Election Eve, two area families stand by their candidates

    Throughout this election season, reporters Nicelle Poston-McKelvey and Holly Otterbein followed local families, reporting on their reactions to the election process. On Beyond the Ballot, they sat down with Dave Davies to talk about how their families — Alisha Jones and Crystal Portlock from Bear, Delaware, and the Kubacki family of East Falls — were feeling on Election Eve.
