   Indeed it did. But what happened in the early hours is no mystery; it's been   
   well-documented. Not everyone voted on Election Day; some voted early and   
   some mailed in their voted. However, by law, those votes were to be stored   
   uncounted until Election Day.   
      
   A couple of factors influenced the respective makeups of the Election-Day and   
   early/mail-in votes:   
   1. One candidate made it abundantly clear to his supporters that mail-in   
   voting was not to be trusted, and   
   2. Early voting is more popular in places where there tend to be long lines   
   at the polls; i.e., urban areas.   
      
   So on Election Day, they start counting the votes, and they started with the   
   Election-Day votes which, due to the factors mentioned above, were   
   disproportionately urban/conservative/Republican. And then around 2am, as you   
   have noted, they finished up the Election-Day votes and moved on to the   
   early/mail-in votes, and due to the same factors these were   
   disproportionately rural/liberal/Democrat.   
      
   Rather than being some grand conspiracy, it boils down to behavioral   
   differences between voters for the two candidates.
